Artist/Band: |  | Pete Jolly | Name: |  | Hello, Jolly! | Cat No.: |  | MZCS-1248 | Performed by: |  | Pete Jolly (piano) Chuck Berghofer (bass) Howard Roberts (guitar) Nick Martinez (drums) & others
| Description: |  | Reissued on CD for the first time!
Limited paper sleeve edition!
Super-rare reissue CD! A collector's item!
A consummate West Coast jazz pianist, Pete Jolly recorded three albums in the 1960s for Ava records. Hello, Jolly! is the third one following Little Bird and Sweet September, featuring Chuck Berghoffer on bass, Howard Roberts on guitar and Nick Martinez on drums.
As the subtitle suggests, a lot of "friends" join the trio: a 12-piece strings section conducted and arranged for by Dick Hazard, and a 12-piece brass section conducted and arranged for by Dick Grove. Some of the materials were taken from the pop music charts of the day, including The Beatles' "A Hard Day's Night" and "Hello, Dolly!" by Louis Armstrong, and given tasteful, sophisticated arrangements. The recorded sound (engineered by Dayton "Bones" Howe) is gutsy and pretty good as well.
Recorded August 1964 in Hollywood. Japanese reissue CD released in 2012 by Muzak. | Eastwind Import Price: |  |
