    About this album

    The Lionel Hampton Quintet captures Lionel Hampton’s big-hearted swing style in a compact, high-energy small-group setting. Issued in 1954, the album shows the vibraphonist and bandleader balancing drive, melody and easy grace, with a repertoire that nods to standards such as On the Sunny Side of the Street and April in Paris. Hampton was already a major force in jazz by this point, and this quintet date highlights the rhythmic bounce and showmanship that made him a star while also reflecting the more modern jazz currents of the era. It remains a fine example of Hampton’s versatility and enduring appeal.
