Dinah Dinah Washington will return for
One Number with an all -star group
Wynton Kelly,
Max Roche, and Paul West remain on stage.
As we bring up first,
a superb trombonist.
One of his best -known solos
is on the Woody Herman second
recording of Blue Flame.
And recently he was given the job of
leading the Benny Goodman Orchestra
in the absence of Benny
for about three months.
Urbie Green.
Then a man whose talents
encompass the mellophone,
the vibes, the trumpet,
the vocal and compositorial
talents.
He's an all -around entertainer
as well. Don Elliott.
And one of the fast and furious men of jazz,
Terry Gibbs.
