Back on 23rd April
2012, I posted this gem at the old Crypt saying:
Here we have another great
musician backed by an impressive Italian jazz group. In 1972, Bill Coleman
(1904-1981) trumpeter extraordinaire linked up with Lino Patruno and his band
for a once in lifetime session. The resulting album showcases Bill in full
swing singing and blowing away on his trumpet and flugelhorn. The atmosphere is
of overall joy and entertainment with all the musicians giving it their best
interpreting some classic old jazz standards. The guitar and bass work by Lino
Patruno is exemplary. Other players of note include Mario Rusca on piano, Bruno
Longhi on clarinet and Sergio Rigon on flute. A highlight is certainly “I Want
A Little Girl”. These tracks are taken from the veteran Italian Durium label.
Under the suggestion of PoppaChubby, I finally got around to re-rip this
beauty, now presented with greater fidelity. Quite a task considering this LP
has been a well-loved and often played album, Enjoy!
