Canadian Music Store Free Music Notes for At the Blackhawk, Vol. 4Free Music Review: And Even More Classic Live West Coast JazzIf Volume 3 of Shelly Manne's "At The Blackhawk" albums is the most relaxed and laidbackof the recordings, then Volume 4 is the most fiery and groovin'. The CD opens with the hard-swingin' "Cabu" followed by the simmering, sentimental "Just Squeeze Me," which contains one of Victor Feldman's greatest piano solos. Don't let the title of "Nightingale" fool you, this song is "A Night In Tunisia" like thriller. Of course the album concludes with the band's theme (as it does on Volumes 1 & 2), and a first rate alternate version of "Cabu." As with the other volumes, the band, sound, and ambiance all come together to paint a classic picture of great West Coast jazz.
