[Edit]

All of the music on this Hep LP (except for the final two of the 16 performances) has since been reissued in the Hep CD Dance of the Octopus which also includes the xylophonist's earlier recordings. However, this LP is perfectly done, tracing Norvo's career in complete fashion during a seven-month period in 1936. He leads an octet that also includes trumpeter Stew Pletcher, Herbie Haymer on tenor and the mellophone of Eddie Sauter (who provided all of the arrangements). The final two numbers were Norvo's first recordings at the head of a big band. Not every selection is essential (particularly not the two vocals by the voice of Betty Boop, Mae Questal) but in general, these chamber swing performances are quite unique and memorable.
