Artist: Herbie Mann Title Of Album: Yardbird Suite Year Of Release: May 13, 2008 Original Release Date: 1957 Label: Fresh Sounds Spain Genre: Jazz, Jazz Instrument Quality: MP3 / Joint Stereo Bitrate: VBR kbit/s / 44.1 Khz Total Time: 50:33 min Total Size: 47,8 mb WebSite: This gathering of top notch soloists delivers an assortment of highly listenable sounds. Mann plays moving flute on five tracks and fluent tenor sax on three, while Phil Woods makes a vital contribution, blowing with biting authority and consistency. And, playing vibes throughout, often in Bird-driven fury, Eddie Costa is a gasser. The rhythm section on both dates has a ball, with guitarist Joe Puma swinging in the section and excellent in solo spots. All things considered, it’s a substantial cooking class all the way. Recorded Hackensack, New Jersey, 1957. Personnel: Herbie Mann (tenor saxophone, flute); Phil Woods (alto saxophone); Eddie Costa (vibraphone, piano); Joe Puma (guitar); Wendell Marshall (bass); Bobby Donaldson (drums).
