Performer Notes
  • Personnel: Bob Cooper (tenor saxophone); Pete Candoli, Conte Candoli, Don Fagerquist (trumpet); Frank Rosolino, Johnny Halliburton (trombone); Lou Levy (piano); Victor Feldman (vibraphone); Max Bennett (bass); Mel Lewis (drums).
  • Recorded at Contemporary's Studio, Los Angeles, California on August 26 & 27, 1957. Originally released on Contemporary (7544). Includes original release liner notes by Nat Hentoff.
  • Digitally remastered by Joe Tarantino (1988, Fantasy Studios, Berkeley, California).
  • Tenor saxophonist Bob Cooper's only Contemporary album (reissued on CD in the Original Jazz Classics series) is a near-classic and one of his finest recordings. Cooper, along with trombonist Frank Rosolino, vibraphonist Victor Feldman, pianist Lou Levy, bassist Max Bennett, and drummer Mel Lewis, performs colorful versions of five standards (best are "Confirmation," "Easy Living," and "Somebody Loves Me") that show off his attractive tone and ability to swing at any tempo. Half of the release consists of his "Jazz Theme and Four Variations," a very interesting work that holds together quite well throughout 23-and-a-half minutes and five movements. Three trumpeters (including Conte Candoli) and one trombone are added to make the ensembles richer. This set is an underrated gem. ~ Scott Yanow
