I have been showing this album to several fans of Moacyr Silva and the feedback received was good, with no exception. There is a reason for showing it to Moacyr Silva fans on this "test drive", American Dancing Quartet is supposed to be Moacyr Silva Quartet, although personnel is not credited. This was the second question of the "test drive" and just one friend said no. Anyway, now we can make it to Loronix community, which I urge to use comments to give feedback.
This is American Dancing Quartet - My Reverie (1959), for Prestige. I think only Moacyr Silva can guarantee his participation on My Reverie, unfortunately, he passed away in 2002. My Reverie brings a repertoire with America standards, featuring a quartet based on sax tenor, bass, piano and drums. It is delicious to hear and very well played by the mysterious American Dancing Quartet. Do not let the Dancing title cheats you, this is 100% Jazz music. Tracks include:
01 - Sleepy Lagoon (J. Lawrence / E. Coates)
02 - On The Sunny Side Of The Street (D. Fields / J. McHugh)
03 - My Reverie (L. Clinton)
04 - I Cried For You (A. Freed / G. Arnheim / A. Lyman)
05 - Whispering (J. Schonberger / R. Coburn / V. Rose)
06 - Blue Moon (L. Hart / R. Rodgers)
07 - I Only Have Eyes For You (A. Dubin / H. Warren)
08 - Stardust (H. Carmichael / M. Parish)
09 - Jeepers Creepers (J. Mercer / H. Warren)
10 - Time On My Hands (V. Youmans / H. Adamson / M. Gordon)
11 - Sweet Sue Just You (W. J. Harris / V. Young)
12 - As Time Goes By (H. Hupfeld)
