The release of the movie Some Like It Hot served as a good excuse for guitarist Kessel to join together with Art Pepper (switching between alto, clarinet, and tenor), trumpeter Joe Gordon, pianist Jimmy Rowles, rhythm guitarist Jack Marshall, bassist Monty Budwig, and drummer Shelly Manne to interpret a variety of vintage numbers, most of which dated from the 1920s. Such tunes as "I Wanna Be Loved by You," "Runnin' Wild," "Down Among the Sheltering Palms," and "By the Beautiful Sea" are given fairly modern arrangements but still retain the flavor of the 1920s, and it's particularly interesting to hear Gordon and Pepper soloing on these ancient songs.

Some Like It Hot
Thank you Mat Tiggas, this is a superb session by a wonderful group of musicians.
ReplyDeleteWould you please let me know which program opens zipx files? Thank you.
ReplyDeleteAfter I renamed the zipx file into a zip file, I was able to unzip it, but my player couldn't read the MP3's, even though Windows recognized they're MP3s. What went wrong?
ReplyDeletehey guys, a couple days ago after i upgraded my OS to windows 8.1, some strange things have been happenin in my pc, one of which is that the files that i zip (with winzip) are now with the extension zipx. obviously a bug that needs to be cleaned up by MS. anyway, zipx files can be extracted with winzip and other programs (google it!). if the problem persists, let me know and i'll re-zip the album with winzip's legacy settings.
ReplyDeleteSame problem, also with Hank Mobley and Vince Guaraldi. Can't open the files.
ReplyDeleteI know this is a very old post, but by any chance could this be re-upped? Many thanks!
ReplyDeleteNew link posted!
DeleteThanks so much Giullia! This is a fantastic recording (despite its age).
ReplyDeleteMany thanks Giullia for this re-up. I was missing this album
ReplyDeleteHey Gilles, Thank you!
