Back Beat Boogie - Harry James and His "New" Jazz Band in 1956. When James scaled back his big band, he used his key sidemen (Nick Buono, Juan Tizol, Willie Smith, Herbie Steward, Larry Kinnamon, Foy Blanton, and Buddy Rich) to launch this interesting group. Never commercially recorded, these sides come from transcriptions for the USMC and feature vocals by Buddy Rich and Peggy King. Also, two bonus cuts of small groups from the James band of the mid-late 1940's featuring Willie Smith.
