Veteran swing/New Orleans trumpeter Herb Morand is heard in two different settings on this interesting collector's LP. The first 11 selections (seven previously unreleased) were cut in the studios with a sextet that also included clarinetist Albert Burbank, trombonist Louis Nelson, and guitarist Johnny St. Cyr. Morand has three vocals and Burbank sings on "Eh! La Bas," with the highlights including "Sheik of Araby," "Milenberg Joys," and "Nobody's Sweetheart." The last four numbers (none out before) are taken from a live set by Morand's quintet, a group also including Andrew Morgan on tenor and clarinet. Although the music is primitive at times, Morand is generally in fine form late in his life and fans of New Orleans revival jazz (which this slightly predates) will be interested in this rare material. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
