Jazz For Playboys

During the 50's, Savoy released quite a few mainstream jam sessions.  They generally revolved around the same batch of players, mostly culled from Basie's band.  The results were excellent and most importantly, consistent.  Jazz For Playboys is no exception and overall is a pleasant ride through jazzville.

You will find that this side gets listed under Frank Wess and Kenny Burrell's names... rightly so.  They appear on all of the tracks and definitely lead the charge as far as soloing is concerned.

I thought this would be a nice break from the Basie project, while still staying in a related sound.  This minty Savoy side is a 1985 reissue, ripped at 24/44.1 wav and dithered to 16/44.1 FLAC... enjoy!!
