FOSTER FRANK - CD LOUD MINORITY

Popis - LOUD MINORITY:
CD reissue of an album from saxophonist Frank Foster which is considered a classic by collectors and DJs looking for samples. Foster is best known as one of the key members of Count Basie's Orchestra in the 1950s as player, arranger and composer. He f.i. wrote the standard 'Shiny Stockings'. In the '60s his solo work took a more modern bent and he worked with many of the most progressive young players of the time. 'The Loud Minority' features a Who's Who of New York jazz players, including Cecil and Dee Dee Bridgewater, Stanley Clarke and Elvin Jones. The title track has been sampled and is one of the great moments of political jazz. The booklet features an in-depth note and exclusive colour photographs from the session. The sound was newly remastered from the original master tapes.
