Big swing face
Beskrivning:Trumslagaren Buddy Rich inspelad live med sitt potenta storband på Chez Club i Hollywood. Spår 1-9 ingick på original-LP:n, övrigt är tidigare outgivet.
"...Rich's orchestra was in its early prime, displaying a very impressive ensemble sound, charts by Bill Holman, Shorty Rogers, Bob Florence, Bill Potts and others, and such soloists as altoist Ernie Watts (a newcomer), trumpeter Bobby Shew, Jay Corre on tenor and the remarkable drummer/leader. Even with the presence of "Norwegian Wood" and "The Beat Goes On" (the latter features Rich's teenage daughter Cathe on a vocal), this is very much a swinging set. Rich has some outstanding solos and lots of drum breaks but does not hog the spotlight; he was justifiably proud of his band." (Scott Yanow, allmusic.com)
