Product Information
These recordings were made when Bobby Bryant (1934-1998) lived in Chicago, and document the beginnings of his later successful career in the Hollywood studios. The first ten tracks were recorded in 1961 for Vee Jay Records, but were released only in 1974 as »Big Band Blues.« As he recalled in the album notes, it »was intended to bring out of obscurity a number of talented musicians. As it turned out, a couple of them did become better known, while others just remained in Chicago and are no more prominent today than they were then. The band was specially assembled for the session; we never did any gigs together.«
The second album, »Wild!«, was made when drummer Larry »Wild« Wrice returned to Chicago in 1959, after eight months away, and formed the group heard here, with James Spaulding, Bobby Blevins, and Bobby Bryant, who arranged much of the group's material and wrote all the album's tunes except Travelin', written by Wrice.
The last track on this collection comes from the album »The Billy Williams Revue,« an example of the musical excitement with which the irrepressible Williams and company packed the country's most celebrated night spots.
