Audio Remasterer: Rosalind Ilett. Audio Remixers: Steven Escallier; Bill Drescher. Recording information: Montreux Jazz Festival, Montreux, Switzerland (07/08/1977). Editor: Rosalind Ilett. Arranger: Don Ellis. Don Ellis' final record as a leader (he passed away from a bad heart in Dec. 1978) is a worthwhile effort. Ellis' large orchestra (four reeds, eight brass, one keyboard, two bassists, two drummers, two percussionists and a string quartet) performs six of the leader's originals and, although none of the songs are all that memorable, there are many fine solos. The main players are trumpeter Ellis, Ted Nash on tenor, alto and clarient and trombonist Alan Kaplan. ~ Scott Yanow
