World CD premiere of original soundtrack from Joseph C. Hanwright drama about down-on-his-luck trumpet player, starring Burt Young (who also scripted), Doug McKeon, Madge Sinclair. Bill Conti engages incredible artistry of Maynard Ferguson, then writes flamboyant score for trumpet & orchestra using modern jazz vernacular. Soaring themes give legendary trumpeter ample room to display his 'chops' in extreme high register. Conti produces strong LP in 1978, emphasizes lengthy tracks for maximum listening pleasure. Intrada premieres 1978 album on CD from original masters vaulted at MGM. Bill Conti conducts. Intrada Special Collection release limited to 1000 copies!
