Clarke-Boland Big Band - Jazz Is Universal album flac

The Kenny Clarke/Francy Boland Big Band was one of the most noteworthy jazz big bands formed outside the United States. It was created in 1961, when, helped by producer Gigi Campi, the US drummer Kenny Clarke, the Belgian pianist and composer Francy Boland and the ex-Ellington bassist Jimmy Woode brought together several jazz musicians of note. Although based in Europe, the band was truly multinational, with several US musicians in the line-up.

Francy Boland spent the time writing the material and charting the arrangements. Gigi Campi maintained contact with everyone to be sure all would go well when the recording date arrived. Kenny Clarke's preparations began. The music was obviously making it when the Kenny Clarke-Francy Boland band assembled in Cologne. The efforts of three individuals are largely responsible for this album; a dedicated Italian record producer, Gigi Campi, the incredible drummer, Kenny Clarke, and the Belgian composer, arranger and pianist, Francy Boland. However spontaneous the music may sound, it took a year and a half of planning to get the dates in line to make everything work out smoothly.
