Dubbed applause to punch-up a less-than-ecstatic audience is far less strange/gratuitous than adding a laugh-track to a studio-shot TV show which has no live audience.

The first of the EmArcy recordings of the Clifford Brown/Max Roach Quintet, this album features trumpeter Brown, drummer Max Roach, tenor saxophonist Harold Land, pianist Richie Powell and bassist George Morrow in fine form. High points include "Stompin' at the Savoy," "I Get a Kick out of You" and Brown's ballad feature on "Ghost of a Chance." Near-classic music from a legendary group.

I like that the word "glamour" isn't one of those words that's spelled differently by Americans and by Brits and contrarians. Like armor/armour, favor/favour, and all those. We all spell it the same way. We all get along.
