Canadian jazz trumpeter and bandleader, Maynard Ferguson, came to prominence in Stan Kenton's orchestra before forming his own big band in 1957. He was noted for his groups, which often served as stepping stones for up-and-coming talent, his versatility on several instruments, and his ability to play in a high register. This new 4CD collection brings together the finest of these releases, and contains eight remastered albums from the golden years of Maynard Ferguson’s career. Serving equally well as a starting point for those new to this maverick musician’s work, and as a welcome reminder for those already well versed, this collection will delight every jazz fan who cares to listen.

Trumpeter Maynard Ferguson led his greatest big band during the years that he was signed to Roulette and all of the music from his 13 Roulette LPs (plus 11 previously unissued selections) are included on this deluxe limited-edition ten-CD box set. Although three of the LPs were originally recorded as dance records (and stick close to the melodies), this box as a whole finds Maynard at his peak and with an orchestra that includes such talented soloists as trombonists Slide Hampton and Don Sebesky (both of whom contributed arrangements), altoist Lanny Morgan, the tenors of Carmen Leggio, Willie Maiden, Joe Farrell, and Don Menza, pianists Jaki Byard and Joe Zawinul, and drummer Rufus Jones in addition to the leader. The music is very jazz-oriented and contains more than its share of classic moments, particularly the sessions that resulted in A Message From Newport and Newport Suite. It's highly recommended.
