Charlie Barnet's Penultimate Recording Session - 1967

Not his final session, I am now told, which seems to be a real gagger for Reader's Digest in which he plays 60s pop tunes.

This is good stuff!
I like "Boomerang" and "Introduction to an Ending" the most.

It's not a '40s sounding band' - more like 50s, but solida big band swing - very unlike the gruesome 60s.

I had this LP, but I do not remember these fine tracks! Superior!!

"Nice" "graphics", too.

"Boomerang" - great cut!

Holy crap! My friend is playing in that jazz band (Occidental). She's the one closest to the camera on sax.
Thanks for sharing

Haha! Sure thing. Happy to. You never know what is going to turn up on YT.

They list a few mores tunes they play. She might be in those, too.
