[Edit]

The only recording of the J.C. Heard Orchestra (a Detroit-based big band that the drummer had founded in 1981) finds the veteran Heard (just two years prior to his death) mostly playing high-quality hard bop with his 13-piece big band. Of the eight songs (best-known are "Nica's Dream" and Woody Shaw's "Sweet Love of Mine"), four are the leader's originals. Among the sidemen, trumpeter Walter Szymanski makes the biggest impression. Pianist Earl Van Riper is the only musician with even a slight "name," but the J.C. Heard Orchestra had a hard-driving and appealing sound.
