MG-36035: Jam Session In Paris / Lionel Hampton

Label Type :	blue EmArcy type B silver rim
Matrix Number :	SIDE-A	YMG36035A MF1 A1 I
	SIDE-B	YMG36035B MF1 A1 I

Comments

One of the very early pressing - YMG MF1 matrix on both sides, silver rim label, and blue-back cover.

Inside The Groove

Mister Vibraphonist Hampton's nice mainstream session at Paris, from original French Barclay recording.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

A companion release of MG-36034 - swings, swings swings. Awesome work. Although we wish the rhythm section should play much better, the total sound presented here is nothing but awesome. Very swingy and relaxed session within mainstream style.

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

8 out of 10
