专辑简介

GRAMMY NOMINATED "FRESH!" is happy, sensitive, exciting, and exuding the rare quality of taste that has so dominated the efforts of "Vocal Hall of Fame" icons THE FOUR FRESHMEN for 60 years. One of the last two recordings featuring original lead singer Bob Flanigan, who established group vocal jazz style.

In FRESH, there are new elements updating the original and famous style of the Four. Not only have they taken to some of the pop/rock composers (Christopher Cross, Stevie Wonder, Roger Murrah and Keith Stegall) like fishes to water, but their sound is updated and recast with electronic keyboards and guitars, and generally smooth and slick instrumental arrangements. The big band jazz arrangements accompanying Mike Beisner's Duke Ellington tribute, "Sophisticated Suite" and Stevie Wonder's "You Are the Sunshine of My Life" sparkle with fun and fire!

The Four Freshmen: Bob Flanigan, lead tenor-trombone, Autie Goodman, 2nd tenor-alto saxophone, Mike Beisner, baritone-trumpet-arranger, Rod Henley, bass-keyboards-trombone-arranger-executive producer.
