Product Description:
Personnel: Big Jay McNeely (tenor saxophone), Little Sonny Warner (vocals), Bob McNeely (baritone saxophone), Wendell Johnson (guitar), Dillard McNeely (bass), Leonard "Tight" Hardiman (drums).
Recorded live on two-track tape at Birdland, Seattle, Washington in 1957. Includes liner notes.
An amazing artifact from 1957, when live recordings like this one didn't happen very often. A Seattle engineer with a spanking-new stereo tape recorder captured the contents of this disc while McNeely and his swinging combo were working out at a Seattle nightspot called the Birdland. He gets plenty of room to peel the paper from the gin joint's walls as he wails on "Flying Home," "How High the Moon," and "Let It Roll." ~ Bill Dahl
