Slide Hampton

Locksley "Slide" Hampton's octet had the flexibility of a small combo but the aural impact of a big band. This Atlantic Records album contains the original liner notes written by its producer, legendary clarinetist Artie Shaw, and features the notable Hampton-penned tracks "Sister Salvation" and "Asservation," along with a notable rendition of Duke Ellington's !"Just Squeeze Me.
