Benny Carter headed a talent-filled tentet for this frequently exciting concert.
With trumpeters Cat Anderson and Joe Newman, trombonist Britt Woodman, Cecil
Payne on baritone and Budd Johnson doubling on tenor and soprano, it is not at
all surprising that the results would be memorable, but this date actually
exceeds one's expectations. In addition to fine jam versions of "Squatty Roo,"
"Them There Eyes" and "It Don't Mean a Thing," there is a remarkable Louis
Armstrong medley on which Carter (on trumpet) plays "When It's Sleepy Time Down
South," Cat Anderson follows with a high note solo on "Confessin'" and then Joe
Newman (who rarely recorded vocals) does a near-perfect imitation of Louis
Armstrong singing on "When You're Smiling."
Enjoy...
