Customer Reviews
A Tribute to the late Bob Florence - a superb CD!!
The Phil Norman Tentet has consistantly produced albums of high quality little big band jazz.
The music has been cleverly written so that the composer/arranger chops are exposed and there is plenty of room for the soloists to stretch.
The music comes from LA heavies like Bob Florence, Roger Neumann, Kim Richmond, Med Flory and more.
Bob Florence , as well as being a great pianist, arranger/composer and band leader probably had fewer enemies and more friends than anyone. It is fitting that first tribute to his passing is by this superlative ensemble of friends.
His next recorded tribute will be along shortly when his own Limited Edition Big Band goes into the studio led by Kim Richmond.
Regardless of the tribute ethos of this presentation, the music will satisfy anyone who cares to listen.
