Customer Reviews:

I'd been looking for this album for 4 years!!!.......2007-01-07

I first got a recording of this CD without knowing who was playing in it or what it was called. It is a great CD, with extreme talent living within each song. I've been searching for years to find this album, and I finally found it!

John Faddis is an awesome trumpet screamer -- one of the best. As a trumpet player, this CD is candy to my ears.

Buy..........the..........CD!!! Everyone needs to hear Jazz Masters at work.

great band!.......2001-05-12

Dizzy was a true master. He has spread his mastery onto countless numbers of people including all who are on this great cd. Jon Faddis is an extreme player. He plays high, low, loud, soft, fast, slow, furious, and beautiful. His highnotes are very controlled and have a great tone. The big disappointment of the cd is the fact that Slide Hampton does not solo. He arranges many of the songs and plays in the band, but has no improvisation. Steve Turre does take a couple of nice trombone solos.

The arrangements by Slide are some of the best ever. Lush full orchestration with unique colors being used together.

Roy Hargrove also plays in the band, as well as Lewis Nash, and Jimmy Heath. With them and other well known players, the band is truly an all star assembledge. All great Gillespie tunes made for a bebop big band(3sax,3tbone,3trpt,rhythm section). Worth twice as much as the asking price.

virtuosity.......1999-12-21

virtuosity. dynamics. music. this is one of the most amazing albums i have heard. when you assemble some of the greatest players of bop into a singular, cohesive unit and record it live, something magical is recorded for all time. buy the album!

Hampton, Heath, and Faddis: Energetic jazz at its best!.......1999-06-17

This is one of those CDs that is a MUST in every jazz collectors library. This all-star tribute to Diz includes the talents of John Faddis and Jimmy Heath in addition to Slide Hampton. These three play off each other so well that their solos are more like musical "conversations" with each other, rather than a single musical monologue. Fantastic Be-Bop energy! Diz would be proud.
