Search - Art Quartet Pepper :: Complete TV Studio Recordings

This remastered CD gathers all the Pepper?s Quartet recordings waxed in the Television studios between 1957 and 1964. First, two sessions from two Los Angeles shows, the famous The Steve Allen Show (with Carl Perkins on piano, Ben Tucker on bass, Chuck Flores on drums, and Pepper playing clarinet on one title), and the memorable Stars of Jazz Show, hosted by Bobby Troup (with Larry Bunker or Victor Feldman on piano, and others). Finally, a session from the legendary Ralph J. Gleason?s Jazz Casual program (with pianist Frank Strazzeri). As bonus tracks, three alternate takes with the unforgettable pianist Carl Perkins, bassist Ben Tucker and drummer Chuck Flores, originally recorded for a company of pre-recorded stereo reel-to-reel tapes. These tracks, Cole Porter?s 'Begin The Beguine', Bud Powell?s 'Webb City', and George Gershwin?s 'Fascinating Rhythm' are veritable rare collectors' items. Lonehill Jazz. 2005.
