Music From Peter Gunn - Arron Bell

Fallout!
Music From Peter Gunn
The Arron Bell Orchestra featuring Aaron Bell on bass
Produced by Eddie Heller
Lion L70112
1959

Super jazzy cover of Mancini's Peter Gunn featuring the throbbing bass beat of Aaron Bell.

From the back cover: The "most" on a bass, Aaron is known in the jazz field as a dedicated perfectionist. His playing and arranging have always been characterized by good taste and its quality of being able to reach everybody. A veteran of such top American combos as those of Teddy Wilson, Andy Kirk, and Lester Young, he recently appeared on The Embers and The Left Bank in New York City, drawing ratings by fans and musicians as one of the top bass men around today. He also appeared on Broadway in the stage version of "Compulsion". The musicians Aaron chose to appear with him in this album were chosen for their flexibility and inventiveness and are considered to be among America's top musicians.
