Contrasts - David Carroll

 

Thunderbird

Contrasts
David Carroll and His Orchestra
Mercury Wing SRW 12508
1959

From the back cover: David Carroll, veteran musician and arranger with many name bands before joining Mercury Records as an artist and repertoire executive, has both camps united in selections on this record. Carroll evidences real separation when the alto sax or trumpet or other solo instrument is featured. On the ensemble portions, where the entire orchestra is working, he develops the ideal "wall of sound."
