Carl Saunders
Stan Kenton alumnus Carl Saunders, one of the most sought after trumpet players in the LA recording studios.
This is Carl's debut big band CD and it is destined to be a classic. Backed up by the top players in the business, including Bobby Shew, Frank Szabo, Ron Stout, Bob Summers and Scott Engelbright in the trumpet section alone. This is an amazing album, great charts, excellent recording and just great playing. Key arrangements by the late Herbie Phillips take Be-Bop Big Band to new heights. This CD showcases Carl and the entire band. It ranks up there as one of the best big band CD's I've ever heard.
