Phil Woods: Groovin' to Marty Paich

Read "Groovin' to Marty Paich" reviewed by Geoff Roach


What a difference 45 years makes. But 45 years don't change a thing. If this sounds like an obvious conflict, you should listen to Phil Woods and the Los Angeles Jazz Orchestra play twelve classic arrangements by Marty Paich.
