| | Si Zentner Thinking Man's Band/Waltz In Jazz Time CD - Import Si Zentner Discography of CDs
 (2 Customer Reviews)
Swing trombonist Si Zentner, who played with Les Brown, Harry James, and Jimmy Dorsey, among others released THINKING MAN'S BAND in 1960. The album is reissued here along with Zentner's WALTZ IN JAZZ TIME.
This superb reissue of two fine albums on one CD features excellent sound and good art reproduction, and at a competitive price. Si Zentner was one of the leading exponents of swing music -- which was supposedly dead -- in the 1960s, and this CD fully explains his popularity. Combining his excellent band with Liberty Records' superior recording facilities, he generated music that, if dated for its time, still forced itself to be heard and found its audience. There's no annotation but the music sounds so good that this oversight can be forgiven, especially as the original (albeit U.K.) cover art, front and back, is reprinted. ~ Bruce Eder

Trout Fishing in America ........ the name taken from a Richard Brautigan novel, seems almost as incongruent and intriguing as a picture of this musical duo - Ezra Idlet (guitar) stands six feet nine inches and Keith Grimwood (bass), five feet five and one half inches. What is more intriguing is the musical career these two have carved out in nearly three decades of writing, recording and performing together. Trout Fishing in America can look back at a body of work that is impressive and know they are just hitting their stride. With the release of their twelfth CD, Merry Fishes to All, TFIA sees the future as the brightest part of their successful career. A brief history of Trout Music: Grimwood's professional musical experience began when, as the precocious teenage bass player, he began sitting in with jazz musicians who had socks older than him. Always the good student, he earned a degree in music from the University of Houston and then quickly landed a position with the Houston Symphony. By that time Idlet had given up his spot on the bench of a local junior college basketball team to pursue a life of rock & roll. It was shortly thereafter that Idlet and Grimwood met as members of the Houston based eclectic folk/rock band St. Elmo's Fire which became the perfect percolator for Trout Fishing in America. As St. Elmo's dissolved in 1979, Trout Fishing in America was officially born. Idlet and Grimwood had become best of friends and musical partners. Success happens when opportunity meets preparation. After years of accumulating original songs and polishing their performance TFIA was ready when the CD revolution took place. ...
