专辑介绍

Even if Bob Haggart hadn't had a career that stretched from the 1930s to nearly the end of the 20th century, he would still be famous for composing the standards "What's New" and "My Inspiration," along with the delightful "Big Noise From Winnetka" and the upbeat "South Rampart Street Parade," all of which are present on this studio date made for Command in 1963. That said, this album is a little bit of a disappointment, simply because the label usually marketed more to the easy listening audience than to jazz listeners, although Haggart is joined by such sterling players as Dick Hyman, Walt Levinsky, Al Klink, and Doc Severinsen. Haggart's arrangements end up being a little too over the top or straight forward, although there are a number of great solo passages throughout the record. The hot version of "Strike Up the Band" features strong solos by Severinsen and tenor saxophonist Eddie Miller over Don Lamond's powerful percussion. But Haggart's versions of his own compositions pale beside both his earlier and later interpretations. In any case, this long unavailable LP is still worth picking up if found at a reasonable price.
