Details
[Edit]This British LP has ten of vibraphonist Red Norvo's 16 V-Discs of 1943-44. Eight of the selections feature Norvo either on Oct. 28 or Nov. 16, 1943 heading a group also including tenor saxophonist Flip Phillips (shortly before he joined Woody Herman), trumpeter Dick Pierce, trombonist Dick Taylor, clarinetist Aaron Sachs, pianist Ralph Burns, bassist Clyde Lombardi and drummer Johnny Blowers; Helen Ward takes a vocal on "Too Marvelous for Words." The music is essentially late-period swing, with Phillips often taking solo honors. The remaining two selections (from Aug. 14, 1944) showcase Norvo and Sachs in a sextet also including pianist Danny Negri, guitarist Remo Palmieri, bassist Al Hall and drummer Specs Powell. The personnel and dates are only partly accurate in the brief liner notes, but the somewhat rare music (some of which has since been reissued) is quite enjoyable and finds Norvo in prime form.
