Kamuca, Richie
Richie
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

Sealed 1977 White Label, Heavy Vinyl Original Featuring Mundell Lowe, Monty Budwig And Nick Ceroli. “Richie Kamuca, A Hard-Swinging But Cool-Toned Tenorman, Did Not Lead Any Record Sessions After 1958 Until He Recorded Three Albums For Concord In Early 1977, Ironically Just Months Before His Death At Age 47 From Cancer. This Particular Set May Very Well Have Been Kamuca's Most Rewarding. Accompanied By Guitarist Mundell Lowe, Bassist Monty Budwig, And Drummer Nick Ceroli, Kamuca Is Quite Lyrical On The Eight Superior Standards, Taking A Surprisingly Effective Vocal On "'Tis Autumn" And Coming Up With Memorable Melodic Statements On The Other Songs.” Scott Yanow, AMG.
