Harry 'Sweets' Edison • Swing Summit

 

 

Review from AllMusic (by Scott Yanow): Trumpeter Harry "Sweets" Edison was 74 at the time of this live set, but he still sounds in pretty good form. He is teamed with fellow Basie veterans Buddy Tate, who splits his time almost evenly between tenor and clarinet, and tenor saxophonist Frank Wess, while the rhythm section swings in a Basie vein. The sextet plays five veteran standards and two original blues, Edison's familiar "Centerpiece" and Tate's "Blue Creek".

Resena de AllMusic (por Scott Yanow): El trompetista Harry "Sweets" Edison tenia 74 anos cuando se grabo esta presentacion en vivo y aun sonaba en buena forma. Lo acompanan el veterano de Basie Buddy Tate, que alterna entre saxo tenor y clarinete, y el saxofonista tenor Frank Wess, junto con una seccion ritmica que toca con el estilo de Basie. El sexteto interpreta cinco standards y dos blues originales, el conocido "Centerpiece" de Edison y "Blue Creek" de Tate.
