Review Another one of those lovely, timeless sets from Arbors, this one finds the clarinetist working out on a set of swingers where the newest tune is from 1960 and the label's usual suspects are no where in evidence. With nothing hoary about any of these chestnuts, this is how sophisticated listening is supposed to sound no matter when the tunes are pulled from. Classy listening for classy ears, this is smart side of what listening like a grown up sounds like. Chris Spector Editor and Publisher --Midwest Record Well-executed small-ensemble swing is one of the great pleasures of life, and few are as well equipped to bestow that pleasure on the world as clarinetist and bandleader Allen Vaché, who has been on the scene doing just that for over forty years now. Here he delivers a wonderful meat-and-potatoes set of standards accompanied by pianist Mark McKee, bassist Charlie Silva, and drummer Walt Hubbard, with guest appearances by two other clarinetists: Erin Davis-Guiles and Vaché's daughter Vanessa. There's nothing groundbreaking or innovative here, just lots of world-class jazz played in a time-honored style by someone whose range, flexibility, and powerful sense of swing are unsurpassed. Rick Anderson --CD HotList: New Releases for Libraries Product Description Jazz clarinetist Allan Vache swing .... on twelve jazz standards. Allan Vache is joined by Mark McKee on piano, Charlie Silva on bass, Walt Hubbard on drums. Also performing are Vanessa Vache on bass clarinet and Erin Davis-Guiles on clarinet.
