Bob Haggart's Swing Three: Hag Leaps In

Bob Haggart: Bass
John Bunch: Piano
Bucky Pizzarelli: Guitar

"Acclaimed clarinetist Kenny Davern, effortlessly spinning out brilliantly articulate lines that often nudge the outer limits of his horn«s tonal range, has brought a very select group of fine jazzmen to the studio to carry out his musical designs."

—Floyd Levin (Award winning jazz writer, producer, lyricist and contributor of oral history interviews to the Jazz Archive at Tulane University)

Arbors Records has put out a great recording by one of the most brilliant upright bass players, Bob Haggart. In this CD Haggart is accompanied by John Bunch on piano, and Bucky Pizzarelli on guitar. These three great musicians represent true jazz swing like it was meant to be played. Each tune has its own distinct taste that brings you deep into the flow of the music.
