Half-Speed Mastered by Stan Ricker!

Bill Berry played trumpet and cornet in The Duke Ellington Orchestra. The only small group release on Concord by this superbly talented Ellington alumnus, Shortcake actually features TWO groups - a terrific quintet including Frank Capp, Dave Frishberg, Mundell Lowe and Monty Budwig, and a larger group including Bill Watrous, Nick Ceroli, Marshall Royal, and other great L.A. musicians of the 1980's. Everything is crisp yet relaxed, the solo work is inspired, and the arrangements for the larger group are creative without being constraining or fussy. This is fun, sophisticated, and swinging; in other words, outstanding jazz.

Audiophile LP collectors will always remember Bill Berry for "For Duke" the sensational direct-to-disc recording. "Shortcake" is a favorite of Jazz fans, and for good reason. Don't miss this limited 33 and 1/3, individually numbered, "Lab Reference Series" 2-LP set.
