Les DeMerle - Hittin' The Blue Notes - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Origin Records introduces the latest CD from the appropriately named Dynamic Les DeMerle Band. Long at the forefront of modern jazz drumming, DeMerle performs arrangements of some of the great hits and tunes that evoke the spirit of those recordings. All About Jazz said this about his last CD for Summit Records InchDeMerle plays with such power and grace as to make his quintet sound like a band three times that size... this disc is an embarrassment of riches.Inch
