Scat!

[sermad]

What do people rate as the top scat lps? Need some help making a list for a friend.

Here are a few that crossed my mind.

Vocal shades and Tones
Jumping Jacques
Janko Nilovic - Chorus
Les Masques

[pokester]

for me it's the novi singers lp's

[pokester]

for most of you it will be barbara moore's work

[Rich Hero]

Do the California Dreamers' contributions to Impulse! recordings count? Or does scat *have* to equate with wordless vocals?

[sermad]

Pokester. Which is your fave novi? Torpedo?

[Lord Thames]

KPM's 'Voices In Harmony', anyone? Even with the dirty great cough in the middle of one of the tracks!

[sermad]

Aha yes. And summer songbirds on kpm too.

What were the scat ones on morgan? Brain failure....

Voices in Latin
Lazy Latins
It's on US Pulsar too & easier to catch.

Ella Fitzgerald LP "Things aint what they used to be" scat-o-matic verion of Manteca.

[BoneyVotel]

When I had Vocal Shades & Tones I thought that it was totally overrated.

yep sermad,

my top 5 (ordere depends on mood )

Bossa nova
Torpedo
Rien ne va plus (my own revolution one of there greatest song)
5,4,3,2,1
Novis in wonderland

[sermad]

I prefer 'vocal patterns' to vocal shades and tones actually.

[Lord Thames]

I think there's only actually one proper 'scat' track on Voices In Latin - 'Tea For Three' - all the rest have proper lyrics. Does it still count?

Side 2 of Boosey & Hawkes SBH3049 is another good 'un!

[sermad]

Yep got 3049. Nice record. There is another jacques hendrix record on standard I think. I can't remember what the no is. me want!
