Dimensions (Maynard Ferguson album)


Dimensions is an album led by jazz trumpeter Maynard Ferguson featuring tracks recorded in early 1954 and mid-1955 and released on the EmArcy label.

Reception

Billboard in 1955 wrote: "Ferguson plays a cleaner, more purposeful host than has generally been true in the past, in which ideas go volleying back and forth between him and saxophonist Bud Shank, Bob Cooper and Bob Gordon." AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars stating "Although not essential, the bop-oriented music is well-played and gives one a good taste of early Ferguson".
