Charles Tolliver Music Inc & Orchestra - Impact - Pure Pleasure lp

180-Gram Vinyl

Trumpeter and flugelhornist Charles Tolliver often straddled the line between hard-bop lyricism and avant-garde adventure. Released in 1975, Impact packs a stimulating progressive edge into an energetic large-band format — 14 horns, eight strings, and rhythm section. Tolliver's bright, momentum-building arrangements leave plenty of room for soloists, with a remarkable reed section featuring Charles McPherson, James Spaulding, George Coleman, and Harold Vick.
