3 Klassiker –Alben von Shelly Manne neu remastert plus Bonus inkl. Liner Notes der original LP.
“Peter Gunn”; “Son Of Gunn”; “Bells Are Ringing” und eine Auswahl von “Li’l Abner”.
Der erste Soundtrack “Peter Gunn” wurde vom Soundtrack-Maestro Henry Mancini komponiert. Dieser gab dann seine Arbeit an Shelly Manne weiter, der daraus einen jazzbeeinflussten Soundtrack schuf, der Seines gleichen sucht. Manne setzte die Arbeit mit Hilfe von ausgesuchten Jazzprofis um. Darunter waren dann Namen wie Victor Feldman, Conte Candoli, Herb Geller, Russ Freeman und Monty Budwig. Als im Januar 1959 die Aufnahmen beendet waren, konnte man nur sagen: Job well done!
Im Mai 1959 wurde dann “Son Of Gunn” umgesetzt. Wiederum eine Komposition von Henry Mancini für eine amerikanische TV Serie. Wieder wurde die gleiche Vorgehensweise umgesetzt, nur dass Manne diesmal mehr Freiheiten bei der Jazzimprovisation hatte und Joe Gordon Candoli an der Trompete ersetzte. Herb Geller (Altsaxophon) wurde ebenfalls ersetzt, und zwar durch Richie Kamuca (Tenorsaxophon).
Ein weiterer Soundtrack war “Bells Are Ringing” mit Musik von Jules Stryne. Diesmal spielte Manne den Soundtrack mit Red Mitchell am Bass und dem jungen Komponisten, Arrangeur und Musiker Andre Previn am Piano ein!
AVID Jazz here presents three classic Shelly Manne albums plus including original LP liner notes on a finely re-mastered and low priced double CD.
“Peter Gunn”; “Son Of Gunn”; “Bells Are Ringing” and selections from “Li’l Abner”
Our first selection “Peter Gunn” was composed by prolific soundtrack maestro Henry Mancini, who gave the project over to Shelly Manne to create a jazz influenced soundtrack! And boy did he come up with the goods! Manne assembled a top team of seasoned jazz professionals including Victor Feldman, Conte Candoli, Herb Geller, Russ Freeman and Monty Budwig for the January 1959 recording date. Mancini had urged Manne to “use the compositions as points of departure for creating personal jazz performances.” Job well done we say!
Jump forward to May 1959 for “Son Of Gunn” again composed by Henry Mancini for the American TV series. Following the same approach as the first album where Mancini had urged Manne to use the arrangements as jumping off points for jazz improvisation. The only change now was in the personnel, Joe Gordon had replaced Candoli on trumpet and Richie Kamuca had come in on tenor to replace Herb Geller on alto!
We have another soundtrack interpretation for our next selection. The Broadway musical “Bells Are Ringing” with music by Jules Stryne and a band line up joining Shelly Manne of Red Mitchell on bass and young genius composer, arranger, conductor and musician Andre Previn on piano!
Finally we have selections from another interpretation of a famous soundtack “Li’l Abner” a show based on the famous American cartoon Al Capp which hit Broadway as a musical in 1956. By 1957 Shelly Manne, Andre Previn and Leroy Vinnegar had turned the score composed by Johnny Mercer and Gene de Paul into nine modern jazz performances.
All three albums plus have been digitally re-mastered.
