Dial ‘B’ For Beauty: The Music Of Tadd Dameron, Part 1.

Tadd Dameron was the quintessential arranger-composer of the 1940s bebop era. On "Dial ‘B' For Beauty: The Music Of Tadd Dameron, Part 1" we feature his compositions and arrangements for both large and small groups. In the company of Sarah Vaughan, Fats Navarro, Charlie Rouse, Dizzy Gillespie, Wardell Gray, Miles Davis, Dexter Gordon and more. And we’ll hear Tadd’s jazz standards “If You Could See Me Now”, “Our Delight”, “Good Bait”, and “Lady Bird”. This is the first of a two part episode in a new occasional series on The Jazz Legacy called "Unsung Heroes", where we put the focus on jazz artists deserving of greater recognition.
