Comments

maybe a 2nd issue in the late 1950s - early 1960s.

Inside The Groove

An easy-listeningeable big-band with strings.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Manny Album was one of the most famous and busiest arrangers for Jazz ensembles. He particularly arranged for big bands. However, this album, maybe one of the earliest albums with his own name, is a so-called “easy-listening” type with full of strings.

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

3 out of 10
