M.F. Horn and M.F. Horn two
Beskrivning:Den kanadensiste trumpetaren Maynard Ferguson flyttade till grannlandet i söder och blev stor stjärna i en cross-over mellan jazz och pop. I det här dubbelalbumet återfinns två av hans bästsäljande album för Columbia-etiketten, M.F. Horn och M.F Horn two. Utvikningskonvolut.
"Trumpeter Maynard Ferguson began his successful "comeback" (after several years of low-profile activity) with this well-received Columbia LP. Featuring his English orchestra (and such soloists as altoist Pete King and Danny Moss on tenor), Ferguson had a minor hit in "MacArthur Park," showcases some Indian musicians on "Chala Nata," and shows throughout that his mind was open toward both newer forms of jazz and pop music. It's an interesting if unessential set."
"During his period on Columbia, Maynard Ferguson showed a willingness (and sometimes even an eagerness) to record pop material. His trumpet playing is frequently brilliant throughout this LP with his English orchestra, but not too many jazz purists will be thrilled with his renditions of "Theme from Shaft," "Spinning Wheel," and "Hey Jude." The music is actually better than it seems, but do not look here for any bop." (Scott Yanow, allmusic.com)
