艺人介绍

by Scott YanowFrank Capp, a flexible and consistently swinging drummer, loves to drive a big band. As leader of the Juggernaut (a group he co-led with Nat Pierce starting in 1975, until the pianists death in 1992), he got to push and inspire some of Los Angeles best. Capp found his initial fame playing with Stan Kentons Orchestra (1951). Two years later, he settled in Los Angeles; became a busy studio musician; and played with everyone from Ella Fitzgerald, Harry James, and Charlie Barnet to Stan Getz, Art Pepper, and Dave Pell. He recorded often with Andre Previns Trio (1957-1964), and also made records with Benny Goodman (1958), Terry Gibbs, and Turk Murphy. Capp worked steadily on television shows and in the film studios in the 1960s, and (starting in the 1970s) recorded extensively in a variety of settings for Concord. The Capp-Pierce Juggernaut (later known simply as the Juggernaut) sometimes sounded identical to the 70s Count Basie Orchestra, and served as a perfect format for the drummers colorful playing.
