(Cool) The Buddy Collette-Chico Hamilton Sextet - Tanganyika - 1956, FLAC (tracks+.cue), lossless

One thing about being a jazz disc jockey is thai no matter how good a new LP may sound, you know that if you had been on the recording and manufacturing end of things, you could have done it better. After all, how can record companies who have had nothing but years of experience possibly know more than you do about it? Besides, its no trouble at all to sit and criticize when the other guy has done all the work and as a critic, man I'm the end!
I'm afraid my good friend Johnny Otis finally got fed up with me yapping about how much better I could have made this or that record, because one day he just turned around like and said "OK, make some." In as much as Johnny is president of DIG records, in addition to being king of radio and TV Rock & Roll here on the West Coast, he really meant it. In other words, put up or shaddup and since it is psychologically impossible for a d.j. to shaddup, I had to put up.
Johnny has always been very close to jazz and even though he currently is making a living rocking and rolling, he still remembers the good old days when he blew with the Prez and all the oilier greats, so the idea of a jazz series on DIG had been in his mind for some time. All he needed was someone to do all the work and here was a character just asking for it!
Giving some serious thought to the problem which my big mouth had landed me in, I sat down and tried to analyze exactly what made for a great L.P. In modern jazz, the two things I rate up top are performance and composition. Who is blowing and what's being blowed? That thought led me right to Buddy Collette. Buddy is not only a virtuoso on his many horns, but a magnificent composer and arranger, as well, so this, my first LP presentation on DIG is constructed on a SOLID foundation of Buddy Collette. There arc several fine jazz musicians around who play a multiplicity of instruments, but Buddy is unique in that no matter which horn he is blowing at the moment, it sounds as though that one is his major instrument and that goes for tenor, alto, clarinet, flute, alto flute and half a dozen others. That the man is a fine composer in addition, is too much, but I never question the workings of fate, especially from a BUDDY.
Now that that was settled we needed a line-up of men that would complement the talents of Mr. Collette. Buddy, himself, suggested John Anderson on trumpet. John hasn't as yet achieved a big name as a jazz sideman, but this one LP may rectify that error in short order. John has a big round tone, reminiscent of the big swing trumpet men, but with nothing but modem ideas controlling this tone. The effect is similar to that achieved by Sweets Edison and you'll hear a bit of Sweets' influence in John's playing.
On piano, one of the most under-rated modern pianists in the country, Gerry Wiggins. Wig gassed us so much at this session that we decided right on the spot to record him on his own LP and that one will be our next release on DIG.
Curtis Counce, who recently left Shorty Rogers to form his own group is handling the bass department and the balance of the rhythm section (and I do mean BALANCE) has two gentlemen from the Chico Hamilton quintet, the great Chico, himself, on drums and Jimmy Hall, guitar. Both Chico and Jimmy are under contract to Pacific Jazz and I am very much indebted to Dick Bock for graciously allowing us to use them on this session. Chico and Jimmy can both be heard, along with Buddy Collette on two fine Pacific Jazz LPs and I recommend them unconditionally as a follow-up to the tilings herein.
Now to the writing. Buddy is especially gifted on penning jungle-type, mood compositions (hear BLUE SANDS by the Chico Hamilton Quintet on Pacific Jazz) and five of the tunes here arc jungle flavored, four of them written by Buddy and one by John Anderson. Buddy's jungle things arc the title tune, TANGANYIKA; JUNGLE POGO STICK, featuring Chico on drums; A WALK ON THE VELDT and the moody GREEN DREAM. John's jungle contribution is AND SO IS LOVE.
The only standard is John's arrangement of Gershwin's HOW LONG HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON? IT'S YOU offers a complete change of pace and unveils another facet of Buddy's writing talents. There arc two Basie-type tilings that sound about ten miles east of East Coast jazz. COMING BACK FOR MORE was so named because everybody was having such a ball they kept coming back for another solo and THE BLINDFOLD TEST came about because of our merriment at the thought of anyone trying to figure this out on Downbeat's "Blindfold Test". WAGNERVOUS is dedicated to one of the top West Coast jocks, my good friend Jack Wagner, who has a fine mid-day show on KHJ in L.A.
The cover photography is by Johnny Otis and engineering was handled by John Kraus, whose sensitivity and feeling for what we were attempting was a big factor in making this my idea of a fine record. What do you think?
