Pre-Order: On The French Riviera (Bonus Tracks) [Colored Vinyl] [Limited Edition] - Dizzy Gillespie

Culled from sessions recorded live in France and at a New York studio in 1962, Dizzy on the French Riviera marked Dizzy Gillespie's first incursion into the realm of Bossa Nova (he had already been a pioneering force in the development of Latin jazz). The album features backing by small groups ranging from quintets to septets, and boasts such stars as pianist Lalo Schifrin (who arranged all of the music here), and saxophonist Charlie Ventura. 180-GRAM COLORED RED VINYL - THE COMPLETE ALBUM + 2 BONUS TRACKS - Contains new specially prepared liner notes by Penguin Guide to Jazz's writer BRIAN MORTON and by Paris' prestigious JAZZ MAGAZINE.
