Synopsis

Album Description
We have to credit our customers for this one?when we put out Chris Connor?s "A Portrait of Chris" album and mistakenly stated that Maynard Ferguson played on it, we got a bunch of messages basically saying "You?re wrong, he doesn?t, but you really should put out Chris? and his Double Exposure album!" Well, we are your humble servants, especially when the album in question is such a gem, featuring the two giants?then on two different labels!?harkening back to their association in Stan Kenton?s band for a cookin? set of mostly standards. Includes "Summertime," "I Only Have Eyes for You," "It Never Entered My Mind," "Two Ladies in De Shade of De Banana Tree," "Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most," "The Lonesome Road," "All the Things You Are," "Black Coffee," "Happy New Year" and "That?s How It Went, All Right."

Picture Perfect Chris Connor And Maynard Ferguson

"This is a duo with the number one horn player of the twentieth century Maynard Ferguson and Big Band singer Chris Connor. Maynard's status is obviously much higher than Chris's although Chris is so beautiful in her own realm or domain that we tend to overlook the facts surrounding the legacy of Maynard. One must give this album 5 stars just because.... Maynard is becoming such a collectible based on his greatness. He's still touring at age 75!!!!!! Every trumpet player knows of his greatness. A five star or I should say 10 star performer the last 50+ years. Maynard rules the world on trumpet always and forever. This album is a must in every sense of the word. Bill Hocking"
Great stuff from two great performers

"While the tune selection dates the album - 'Summertime', 'I only have eyes for you' and 'Lonesome Road' were never among my favourites or mayhap they got worn out from OVER exposure - several items are gems. 'It never entered my mind', 'Spring can really hang you up the most' and 'Banana tree' are my faves. Ferguson lets Connor sing and his excursions into the stratosphere are timely and apt. The band never over-shadows that warm dusky voice but everyone seems to be having a good time. I did. And will again and again."
