Product Information
Producer Orrin Keepnews assembled the Riverside Jazz Stars to record the music from the 1961 Broadway musical Kean, a rich melodic score by Robert Wright and George Forrest. Using brass, reeds, and rhythm-three of each-this Jazz Version of Kean was arranged by Ernie Wilkins, Jimmy Heath and Melba Liston, emphasising the melodic, hard-swinging and soulful qualities of East Coast jazz. In the band, conducted by Wilkins and Liston, most of the solo space was taken by three brilliant jazzmen, trumpeter Blue Mitchell, tenor sax Jimmy Heath, and pianist Bobby Timmons, while Julius Watkins and Clark Terry are also prominent on French horn and flugelhorn respectively. The Soul of Hollywood, the second album here, is a collection of well-known movie songs and a tribute to the talents of pianist Junior Mance and arranger Melba Liston, who provided the vividly-colored orchestral settings to Mance's earthy and forceful piano.
