Bill
Allred's Classic Jazz Band
We
started this quest in late 1989, with our primary
mission to find, research and play some of the almost
forgotten
arrangements
of the early reading jazz bands. At the time we didn't realize
what a Pandora's Box we were opening. Charts, interest
and fans came from all over. Our efforts
to try new sounds and combinations have resulted in some very unusual
treatments of old and new musical material.
Now,
after 20-plus years and 13 recordings, we are still testing
our musical resolve. More info
