The Herb Pomeroy big band was already a Boston institution when it stood New York’s Birdland on its ear for two weeks in May 1957. It was a brassy, exciting and swinging 16-piece powerhouse, strong on ensembles and admirably disciplined. The band sought variety, rather than being a prisoner to any one style, which was all to the good, considering its fine writing and even better playing precision; its book was wholly its own, including scores by the leader and members of the band. A stunning roster of soloists included the leader, Joe Gordon, Charlie Mariano, Boots Mussulli, Bill Berry, Lennie Johnson, Varty Haroutunian, Gene DiStasio, Jimmy Mosher, Ray Santisi, and John Neves. And a further plus was the fact that Zoot Sims was featured as a guest tenor soloist on the band’s first album. Any big band fan is sure to enjoy this set tremendously.
