Gary Smulyan - Tadd's All Folks

This album is all about Tadd Dameron (1917 - 1965), one of the most important American jazz composer/musicians, multiple award-winner Gary Smulyan conceived the brilliant idea of recording Dameron compositions with lyrics.

The vocal part is phenomenally rendered by the young talent Anais Reno. Three songs including the lovely This Night Of Stars have never been recorded before.

An exhibition of the finest baritone sax playing. - Mark McKergow, LondonJazz News on 'Alternative Contrafacts' (SCCD31844)
