Four Classic Albums (The Herd Rides Again In Stereo / The Fourth Herd / Swing Low, Sweet Clarinet / At The Monterey Jazz Festival)

Avid's 2-CD set of Woody Herman (AMSC 1166) offers four classic stereo albums, three being his big bands from the late fifties. "The Herd Rides Again" dates from July/August 1958, when a nucleus of his First Herd was joined by later Hermanites, and rekindled some of Woody's earlier hits.
