“Live At Blues Alley”
The TAYLOR / FIDYK BIG BAND
OA2 Records (OA2 22027)WOW, they’ve done it again!
The Taylor/Fidyk Big Band's first CD “A Perfect Match,” has been one of our biggest sellers. Mark Taylor, former Stan Kenton arranger, has written more outstanding charts, for “Live At Blues Alley,” and this band is second to none.
The easiest way to describe the band is: “world class players, inventive charts, superb musicianship makes this a GREAT band, and an excited performance.”
“Hard driving and cookin’ band with the ‘real deal’ goods. This is the kind of writing, and playing that every big band fan dreams of. A must have in yours and my collection.”
-- John La Barbera
