about

"Top 5 Album 1999" Jazz Times

During the last few years of his life, when he could no longer play trumpet, Buck Clayton became a full-time arranger and wrote for an enthusiastic mainstream big band. The 16-piece orchestra (which is filled with such notables as altoist Jerry Dodgion, tenor saxophonist Frank Wess, pianist Dick Katz and a trumpet section comprised of John Eckert, Jordan Sandke, Byron Stripling and Warren Vaché) is heard on this 1997 CD performing a dozen of Buck's originals, most of which were newly composed. The concise solos perfectly fit the swinging charts, and although Clayton does not play a note, his personality can be felt throughout the rewarding date, one of his final recordings.

AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow

This concert at the world famous Village Vanguard, NYC, presents an important set from Buck's five years at the helm of The Buck Clayton Swing Band. This band became Buck's pride and joy. You can hear the fun the band had on these special nights. All the music here is the very warm, relaxed and high spirited Swing of Buck Clayton. The result - music so lyrical and pretty (one of Buck's favorite words), a band spirit with gorgeous solos from everyone.
