Maynard Ferguson has been considered one of the premier jazz trumpet virtuosos for over 4 decades! He has a cult following of trumpet players all over the world. He has released numerous albums over those years, his most popular being on the Columbia label in the 70's and 80's. Carnival was originally issued in 1978 and reached # 113 on the Billboard charts. This album features his interpretation of the jazz classic 'Birdland' as well as 7 other tracks. This album is making its worldwide CD debut on Wounded Bird Records.
Maynard Ferguson's version of "Birdland" from this LP was a bit of a hit and he fares fairly well on "Stella by Starlight" and "Over the Rainbow" but overall this typically commercial Columbia album is of lesser interest. MF, at the height of his popularity, was clearly looking for a hit which is why he recorded the "Theme from Battlestar Galactica" and roughly half of the poppish material on this rather forgettable effort. The trumpeter/bandleader would record worse albums than this LP but this one is weak enough.
