This is the very first recordings of the opening night of the orchestra at the Village Vanguard. The band that set the standard for modern, innovative, swinging bid band jazz and that it has been unmatched since. There’s a palpable and contagious energy in the room. This is the first time they are playing Thad Jones very innovative writing for a big band. Great melodies, superb solos and lots of interplay. Thad is the cheerleader, conducting, waving, shouting, clapping… you can hear him throughout the recordings… it is really special! This is music that changed the way big bands played jazz and ever since then, fifty years ago, the influence of Thad Jones and his band lives on.
