Jazz / West Coast Jazz; Cool
Recorded: January 24, 1958, Radio Recorders, Hollywood, California
Buddy Collette is among jazz's overlooked treasures. One of the artists to first define the notion of multi-instrumentalist, Collette is heard here on flute, clarinet, alto and tenor saxes. Also adding to the unique texture of this musical tour of Paris is an emphasis on brass (Frank Rosolino's trombone, Red Callender's tuba) and strings (Howard Roberts's guitar, Red Mitchell's bass), with particularly inspired use of Callender and Mitchell in lead roles.
Includes original liner notes by Ralph J. Gleason.

An important force in the Los Angeles jazz community, Buddy Collette was an early pioneer at playing jazz on the flute. Collette started on piano as a child and then gradually learned all of the woodwinds. He played with Les Hite in 1942; led a dance band while in the Navy during World War II; and then freelanced in the L.A. area with such bands as the Stars of Swing (1946), Edgar Hayes, Louis Jordan, Benny Carter, and Gerald Wilson (1949-1950). An early teacher of Charles Mingus, Collette became the first black musician to get a permanent spot in a West Coast studio band (1951-1955). He gained his greatest recognition as an important member of the Chico Hamilton Quintet (1955-1956), and he recorded several albums as a leader in the mid- to late '50s for Contemporary. Otherwise, he mostly stuck to the L.A. area, freelancing, working in the studios, playing in clubs, teaching, and inspiring younger musicians. Although a fine tenor player and a good clarinetist, Collette's most distinctive voice is on flute; he recorded an album with one of his former students, the great James Newton (1989). In addition, Collette participated in a reunion of the Chico Hamilton Quintet, and recorded a two-disc "talking record" for the Issues label in 1994, in which he discussed some of what he had seen and experienced through the years.
