A brilliant vibes player, arranger and conductor, Gary McFarland’s name didn’t achieve lasting fame due largely to his premature death under strange circumstances in 1971 at the age of 38. This release presents the complete original LP The Gary McFarland Orchestra / Special Guest Soloist: Bill Evans (Verve V6-8518), which was the only recorded collaboration between McFarland and Evans. As a bonus, McFarland’s previous album in its entirety: The Jazz Version of “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” (Verve V6-8443), on which he arranges music from the Frank Loesser-Abe Burrows musical of the same title, as well as “Why Are You Blue?”, which was the only McFarland composition from a Bob Brookmeyer LP presenting nearly the same instrumentation as the bonus album. The McFarland orchestra featured throughout this CD is a real who’s who of jazz greats, including such names as Joe Newman, Clark Terry, Phil Woods, Bob Brookmeyer, Hank Jones, Jim Hall, Kenny Burrell, and Mel Lewis, among many others.
