Title: Buddy DeFranco: CookinŽ The Books, with John Pizzarelli Trio and Butch Miles Artists / Instruments: Buddy DeFranco; clarinet/John Pizzarelli; guitar/Martin Pizzarelli; bass/Ray Kennedy; piano/Butch Miles; drums

Description: Buddy DeFranco joins with the popular John Pizzarelli Trio and Butch Miles to prove that he is still "Mr. Clarinet." Swinging from start to finish, DeFranco shows that same dexterity and musica passion that made him a pioneer in exploring the clarinet for be-bop and one of the all time clarinet greats. The John Pizzarelli Trio, another paragon of swing, and Butch Miles, who has swung the Count Basie Orchestra for many years, provide the rhythmic base, and John Pizzarelli adds two vocals in his crowd-pleasing way.
