ALBAM'S FIRST TWO LPS UNDER HIS OWN NAME COLLECTED ON ONE PACK FOR THE FIRST TIME!

INCLUDING SOME OF THE BEST WEST COAST STARS!

This issue comprises for the first time on one CD the first two albums Manny Albam recorded under his own name ("The Jazz Workshop" & "The Drum Suite"). Many outstanding figures participated on the sessions. Albam's recording career spanned seven decades, beginning in 1944 (on his first sessions he was more of a baritone sax player than an arranger) and ending in 1999. Highly acclaimed, he died at the age of 79 on October 2, 2001.
