Four Freshmen Swingers + Four Freshmen & 5 Trumpets CD

EU-only two-fer containing a pair of albums plus two bonus tracks. Contains two complete original albums by The Four Freshmen, which was one of the finest jazz vocal groups from the 1950s. These outstanding LPs are The Swingers and Four Freshmen And 5 Trumpets. While the former features the Freshmen backed by a big band arranged by Bill Holman, the latter showcases them along with star trumpeters, among them Pete Candoli and Mannie Klein, plus Shelly Manne on drums. As a bonus, we have added two rare tunes that complete the sessions from Four Freshmen And 5 Trumpets but were not included on the original LP. Includes 16-page booklet.
