Harry James Plays “The Creeper”

Artist:

Album:Harry Not Jesse

Track:The Creeper
"The Creeper" is anything but creepy. Maybe a little misguided? Anyways, the approach is a slyly sax section providing rolling chords for James muted trumpet solo which trades quips back and forth between the band and himself. The saxes are the comedians along the drummer interjecting little bombs here and there. This humorous give and take between soloist and full but muted ensemble is a hallmark of this set with extended full unison passages that, at the conclusion, end abruptly like someone pulling the rug out from below.
