about

A major event for jazz fans in general and Duke Ellington fans in particular. Here – for the first time – is Ellington’s original 30-minute long studio recording of Togo Brava Suite in its entirety, plus 42 minutes containing more exciting, previously unreleased material recorded in New York around the same time (June, 1971), with the same band. The Togo Brava Suite is the most rhythmic and most “African” of all Ellington’s works. Particularly great solo work is contributed by the saxophone section – Paul Gonsalves, Harold Ashby, Russell Procope and Harry Carney – plus Norris Turney on flute and the Duke Himself on piano.

JAM SESSION ART PEPPER, ZOOT SIMS
by Art Pepper

supported by 6 fans who also own “Togo Brava Suite”

Thanks to Laurie Pepper for a great Christmas present! Not surprisingly, the highlight is Art's ballad feature, (Somewhere) Over The Rainbow, but everybody plays well throughout. Zoot really shines on the surprisingly uptempo Girl From Ipanema. He should have been recorded live more often. He always brought a little extra when spurred on by another top saxophonist, and who better to spur him on than Art Pepper? Great recording quality too. waylonfeedback
