Jazz trumpeter Charlie Shavers was an extraordinary musician. His "Jazz at the Philharmonic" trumpet battles with Roy Eldridge provided some of the most exciting music in Jazz history. As a key member of the first Jazz "chamber" unit, John Kirby's fine band, and lead soloist of Tommy Dorsey's legendary aggregation - he built a reputation as a musician that could cut any gig, and because of his reliability, he was frequently called upon by the brightest starts in Jazz to add his special touch to their recordings and live shows. Charlie was in such great demand during his career that he seldom had time to record "solo" albums. Although his trumpet graced countless recordings of great importance in the Jazz world, records of this nature are few and far between. This rare audiophile recording, "Here Comes Charlie," originally released in 1960, features Charlie backed by the Ray Bryant Trio. All selections newly re-mastered.
