Pleiades - Tribute to Maynard
Ferguson by Eric Miyashiro [Japanese Import]
- HOT ITEM
Tokyo-based trumpeter Eric Miyashiro has recorded a
truly remarkable Maynard Ferguson tribute. The 10 tracks
on this album are comprised of one original, five classic
Maynard tunes, and four charts that Maynard played on
the road but never ended up on an album. The never-before
recorded tracks include a Nick Lane composition, "River
Whale", a Denis DiBlasio arrangement, "O Que
Sera", a Chip McNeill composition, "Close
the Deal", and the famous Jay Chattaway arrangement
of the "Tommy Medley". With beautiful packaging,
comprehensive liner notes, and testimonials from Bobby
Shew and Maynard's daughter Wilder Ferguson Jacob, this
is the most impressive Maynard Tribute I've ever heard.
Eric manages to capture Maynard's joyful spirit without
ever simply imitating Maynard's style.

- Pleiades
- River Whale [sample

- Frame For the Blues

M.F. Horn 3
M.F. Horn 3 (1973) took a turn away from the pop covers
of the earlier MF Horn albums, and instead settled
into the darker and more groove-oriented vibe of the
time period. In retrospect, this album feels less
commercial and more experimental for Maynard, which
often has very interesting and exciting results. Includes
original album artwork and liner notes.

album" that Maynard ever recorded, and was extremely

captures Maynard at the absolute peak of his abilities.
