About this Artist

Editorial Reviews

Health problems had long since forced Buck Clayton to give up the trumpet by the time these live recordings were made in early 1990, but he still had a lot to offer as a composer and arranger. Leading a 16-piece big band made up of some of the best musicians playing regularly in New York City -- including trumpeter Warren Vache, alto saxophonist Jerry Dodgion, tenor saxophonist Frank Wess, baritone saxophonist Scott Robinson, and pianist Dick Katz (to name just a few) -- the leader's dozen originals provide fertile ground for his musicians. Sadly, this date also proved to be somewhat of a swan song for Buck Clayton, who died the year following the making of this CD. Promoted as a limited-edition reissue, this recommended CD initially appeared in 1996 as The Buck Clayton Swing Band Live From Greenwich Village, NYC. Ken Dryden, All Music Guide
