Jerry Coleman's Nine
Burner, "Jazz
Makes You Happy" (Coleman) ***
Two different nonets are featured on veteran drummer Coleman's
latest Nine Burner album not to mention two different bass trumpeters,
Shultz and Cy Touff. Boasting arrangements by the late Gene Esposito
and Bobby Schiff, each of the little big band applies distinctively
full- blooded, richly textured readings to songs in- cluding John
Lewis: "Django" and Bill Stray- horn's "Blood Count.:
The soloists include altoist Mike Smith, trumpeter Ron Friedman
and baritone saxist bass clarinetist Ron Kolber. (Chicago
