Giant Box
''Giant Box'' is a double album by American arranger/conductor and composer Don Sebesky recorded in 1973 and released on the CTI label.CTI Records discography accessed February 24, 2012 Reception The review states "This may have been Creed Taylor's most ambitious single project... Thankfully the musicmaking lives up to the billing. Everything that gave CTI its distinctive sound and identity is here – the classical adaptations, elaborate orchestrations and structuring, pop-tune covers, plenty of room for the star soloists to stretch out in a combo format... ''Giant Box'' still ranks as a sensational coup and a reminder of how potent CTI was at its peak".[...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Tailgunner (album)
''Tailgunner'' is an album by organist Jimmy McGriff recorded in 1977 and released on the Lester Radio Corp. (LRC) label.Both Sides Now: LRC Album Discography accessed October 22, 2018 Reception Doug Payne stated: "This 1977 disco production sounds like Jimmy McGriff was added as an afterthought. His distinctive organ fills seem "dropped in" after arrangers Brad Baker and Lance Quinn recorded the rhythm, horn and string sections. Worse, this is some of the weakest music McGriff has ever participated in ... McGriff's only contribution here, the horn-driven "Starlite Ballroom" (featuring notable alto and tenor solos from George Young), makes for some welcome, though out-of-place swing jazz. Otherwise, there's too little that's memorable about ''Tailgunner''Payne, D[...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
