Vamp 'til Ready


Vamp 'til Ready is an album recorded by drummer Jo Jones in 1960 and released by the Everest label.

Reception

Allmusic's Scott Yanow noted, "Some songs only use one or two of the horns, but each player gets his spot. Edison was very consistent during the era, and Forrest has a few muscular tenor solos. Fans of small group swing and drummers who want to hear Jones in a couple of well-recorded sets will enjoy this". On All About Jazz, David Rickert wrote "Vamp 'Til Ready, is an informal jam session featuring an outstanding line-up".
