Various - Big And Brassy

Review by Andrew Fowler

Big And Brassy by Various is a must-have album for any jazz enthusiast. Featuring a collection of lively and energetic tracks, this album showcases the best of the brass section in jazz music. The arrangements are dynamic and the musicianship is exceptional, making for a truly enjoyable listening experience. The album includes classic tunes like "Take the A Train" and "In the Mood," as well as lesser-known gems like "Boplicity" and "Manteca." The performers on this album are some of the best in the business, including legends like Dizzy Gillespie, Maynard Ferguson, and Woody Herman. The production is top-notch, with a clear and balanced sound that allows each instrument to shine. Big And Brassy is a fantastic album that captures the excitement and energy of jazz music at its finest.
