UA Showcase was the first recording by the newly created United Artists Records in 1958. The set of songs from great UA movies was given bright, fresh scores by Hal Schaefer and a brisk, bristling reading by a large, star-studded orchestra. Among the excellent soloists featured are Gene Quill on alto sax, Nick Travis, on trumpet, Frank Rehak, trombone, and Schaefer on piano. The approach throughout is interesting and innovative, and the full sound the band gets suggests impressive power kept carefully under control. Likewise, Jazz Goes to the Movies is a first rate album that reached the pop as well the jazz market in 1962. Skillfully arranged by Manny Albam, his jazz settings of familiar movie songs and themes were zestfully delivered to build and sustain a variety of moods. The three orchestras used, comprising 12, 14, and 17 men respectively, included some of the most dependable soloists and section men in New York City.
