Comments for Ferguson, Maynard, M.F. Horn

This album is just fantastic! I love to hear Maynard soar above the ensemble with such a rich sound. This is yet another great album that needs to be on CD!

Eli's Comin' Rocks!

"Mac Arthur Park" is a classic MF tune - and for a BETTER version (if that's possible) check out the same tune on "MF Horn 4&5 - Live at Jimmy's"

This is a good album! I have two, one cover has Maynard's face and the other has him seated on a stool. Is one a Re-issue, Re-print, Re-pressing, Re-release...?

dmiller... I've got the two covers also. What gives?

The "stool cover" is the original. The "face cover" came out a bit later. So if you want the original, get the one with him sitting on the stool. The content is identical in both albums.

Wow! This album is incredible. Maynard sound so pure and powerful! I listened to L-Dopa, I don't know how many times. Why isn't this on CD? And by the way, the version of "MacArthur Park" on "M.F. Horn 4&5-Live At Jimmy's" is NOT better. Buy this album! NOW!

The only thing better about the "Jimmy's version" of Mac Park is the one of a kind Bari solo by B. Johnston. The Mf Horn Mac Park is stunning: Maynard is so strong, he plays more of the theme, it is nearly flawless!

I have to say, out of the many many Maynard albums I own and enjoy, this and the Columbia album "Maynard Ferguson," are my absolute favorites. On this particular album, I think Eli''s Comin'' is the best MF screamer selection yet I am sort of hooked on track 5, "If I thought you''d ever change your mind." A very good all around big sound with a good alto solo by Pete King, a true king among Maynard''s lead saxes!! I give this album a 10!!

Awesome Ferguson album! First of three M.F. Horn albums.Check out #1,3,4,6 -- the best on the album. Eli`s Comin`is a 1967 classic by Laura Nyro.

The two shorter track on both sides are good, not crazy about the longer ones.
