Four of a kind / Harvey -- Perdido / Tizol.

Johnny Dankworth and his orchestra (featuring Eddie Harvey, Bill Geldard, Keith Christi and Maurice Pratt, trombones)Summary: Four Of A Kind, an Eddie Harvey up-tempo original, is so named because it features Johnny Dankworth's four trombones. They chase the ensemble through the first and last choruses, make up the two middle choruses with 6-bar solos each. Although contributing nothing unexpected, all give lively accounts of themselves and help to make this an invigorating, indeed quite spectacular side. Perdido, almost equally sprightly paced, has its less boisterous moments in 16 bars of good Dankworth alto and eight bars of his comely writing for the sax team. But for the most part this side is as energetic as its coupling especially at the end where it builds up its climax by excited riff trumpet passages, for each of which the familiar trick of putting up the key a tone or a semitone is used. (Gramophone August 1954)
