One of the greatest big band and jazz drummers of all time, a pioneer of double bass drum technique, an indefatigable band leader, and a charismatic jazz educator, Louie Bellson is one of the most important drumming figures in the history of jazz. These two CDs of his signature, modern-yet-swinging brand of big band jazz 150 MPH and Dynamite make for a highly combustible combination. The result is a powerful and blistering Inferno of inspired music. Fans of creative big band jazz-as well as fans of jaw-dropping, virtuosic drumming-need look no further than this package of two of Louie Bellson's classic, Concord Jazz big band sessions.
