Woody and the Woodehoppers
have cut a new album of modern,
highly developed jazz, and in do
ing so, they have demonstrated
that jazz still lives on and can be
made enjoyable, even to those
with a more conservative taste in
music. His rendition of "Dear"
stars Red Norvo on the vibes
Norvo picks up the melody at a
slow tempo and then jumps it.
'Someday" is not quite on a par
with the rest of the album; it.
too, stars Herman and Norvo.
"Horse" starts with some great
bass work by Chubby Jackson,
but Billy Bauer and his guitar
soon come into the picture. At
the piano, Jimmy Rowles' tone is
clear and concise and the entire
opus spotting the rhythm section
is reminiscent of Cole's trio.
"Weekend" is a typical Herman
arrangement, and we find that
old standby Flip Phillips leading
the way.
Rhythmic Field Day.
"Nero's" is one of the better
sides, and, at times, traces of
"Saturday Night" may be found
in the score. In the background
Norvo and Jackson hold a rhyth
mic field day. Flip winds up the
proceedings with a semi-Ventura
finale. "Igor" places more em
phasis on the abilities of Don La-
mond's drums, and the group, as
a whole moves at a much faster
pace.
"Pam" shows a slowing of pace,
"and Woodrow and Phillips take
Blow, well-rounded moves. Her
man again sounds much like
Benny, and his intro is quite sim
ilar to "I Can't Get Started."
"Steps" defines a muted tram and
trumpet theme with Woody in the
foreground. Bill Harris solos in
that low down blues which takes
you back to New Orleans days.
(Columbia Set C-121).
Frantic Face.
"Bed" is a calipso number with
a very novel Manne drum intro.
Once the whole Kenton crew gets
In, the tune moves at a frantic
pace and is really exceptional.
June Christy is at her best, and
the Pastels are equally superb.
Notice the "Pow-Pow" kick that
are inserted by the band and the
Pastels. The ending, however, is
the highspot of the disc, and is
a masterpiece of Kenton fran
ticism. (Capitol 361).
Prep Regional Meet
Booked at Coliseum
The coliseum will be the scene
of the Lincoln Regional Class A
basketball tournament this week
end. Play will begin on Thurs
day night when Lincoln high
meets Fairbury.
Friday night games are North
east of Lincoln against Beatrice
and Nebraska City against the
winner of the Lincoln-Fair bury
battle. The Friday winners will
play Saturday night, but both
finalists will be eligible for the
state prep tournament next week.
Charles Brackett and Billy Wil
der producer and director of
Paramount's "The Empe r o r
Waltz," describe the plot as a gay,
romantic comedy anchored to the
Vienna of 1901 by good strong
chains of reality.
