Inside The Groove

A nice collection of outtakes from live recordings at Basin Street West, LA (PHM 200-092 / PHS 600-092) and at Harrah's Club, Lake Tahoe, NV (PHM 200-131 / PHS 600-131).

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

This album consists of outtakes from “Encore Woody Herman - 1963” and “The Swinging Herman Herd - Recorded Live” albums.

Woody Herman's big band in the 1960s has been so much underestimated. But actually they really swings well, with refreshing arrangements (mostly by Nat Pierce) and tightened ensemble. This is another exciting live album by Woody Herman band in the 1960s.

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

9 out of 10
