THE REAL GROUP
Flight of the Foo-birds
I know this is cheating a little. There are no wind or percussion instruments in this recording and it certainly ain’t big, but as a follow up on yesterday’s Basie, Lockjaw post here is a Swedish vocal group doing Flight of the Foo Birds. The first solo is the Frank Wes alto solo and then a trumpet solo, probably Joe Newman but I don’t know but then come the bombshell. Every time I listen to it I totally fall out. It’s Lockjaw. Its pretty much his solo as recorded on the Basie Bomb album and it is 100% Jaws, and great.
