I only ever heard Frankie Laine do Country and Rockabilly + Pop but never Jazz. Brilliant stuff, one of the best vocal albums I have heard in years. Buck Clayton,JJ Johnson, Kai Winding are fantastic as Buck's whole band is. Great lengthy solos from the musicians and Buck often has that trad New Orleans sound with his playing. This has had a few spins lately Cool

Hey Matt, regarding your remark about Buck Clayton yesterday, I have a record where he channels that old sound too, nice stuff.

Fabulous sound his band had John. Its a bit like Armstrong but with more boppy solo's. I was amazed at how good Frankie Laine is singing Jazz. A bit like Doris Day. Frankie being known  more for Country. I see he did some other stuff too  on ten inches and also one with Andre Previn.
 
Playing this one in the car last night and giving it another spin today. Doesn't  he strangle and twist em' out here. Cool

I always love albums of this Osanna. They were divided temporarily in Uno and Citta Frontale in 70's. This album will not have a feeling of black art-like throbbing pulse such as Parepoli. However, there will be the part that they let prog rock and fusion fuse as the situation and musicality of 1978 wonderfully.
This album may be often given a wide berth for the fan of Osanna. However, prog rock and fusion were united with breath of Naples wonderfully.Thumbs Up


I've never heard anything from Uno or Citta Frontale, but they are on my list. And I agree, that dark beast Palepoli is in a league of it's own, huh? And I have found 'Suddance' to have some great songs on it - the bass sound is a little cheesy, as is the sax, on the second half, but I love the first half and I agree with you again, Kazu, Osanna fans should give it another listen!

Yes. A lot of prog rock affected by jazz and fusion exists. I have some albums of Italian prog rock, but Dedalus and Alti E Mestieri are my favorite bands. Of course there are a lot of bands which, besides, are good.

Yes, I love Eddie's Stevie Wonder skit, I may drop off the link here later. You saw the link to Eddie's James Brown skit earlier didn't you?

Yes, I saw the show years ago now. Probaly about 4 times all up now. One of the best stand ups I have ever seen LOL "Raw" was okay but "Delirious" how could you follow it being so good. Even the kids call Stevie here a musical genius due to the skit and make a mockery of James. They are the best bits of his vocals (screams and grunts) for meApproveCool
