Review
by Scott Yanow
This
double LP is easily Maynard Ferguson's best jazz-oriented recording for
Columbia. With the exception of a remake of "MacArthur Park" (which
isn't bad), the music sticks exclusively to jazz with the highlights
including "I'm Gettin' Sentimental Over You," "Two for Otis," "Stay
Loose with Bruce," "The Fox Hunt," and "Got the Spirit." In addition to
Ferguson's powerful trumpet, other musicians making strong impressions
include first trumpeter Lin Biviano, altoist Andy MacIntosh, Ferdinand
Povel on tenor, baritonist Bruce Johnstone, and keyboardist Pete
Jackson.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Este
doble LP es sin duda la mejor grabación de Maynard Ferguson para
Columbia orientada al jazz. Con la excepción de una nueva versión de
"MacArthur Park" (que no está mal), la música se ciñe exclusivamente al
jazz, con temas destacados como "I'm Gettin' Sentimental Over You", "Two
for Otis", "Stay Loose with Bruce", "The Fox Hunt" y "Got the Spirit".
Además de la poderosa trompeta de Ferguson, otros músicos que causan una
fuerte impresión son el primer trompetista Lin Biviano, el contralto
Andy MacIntosh, Ferdinand Povel al tenor, el barítono Bruce Johnstone y
el teclista Pete Jackson.
