Swingin' by Arturo Sandoval was released Jun 18, 1996 on the GRP label. "Real McBop" was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition. Swingin' It seems remarkable that Arturo Sandoval never seems to win any jazz polls, for few trumpeters can come close to equaling his technique, jazz chops, and warm sound. Swingin' On this advanced hard bop date, the music is strictly straight-ahead without any Latin rhythms. Sandoval matches wits quite successfully with clarinetist Eddie Daniels on two songs, tenor great Michael Brecker on three (including a memorable rendition of "Moment's Notice"), and veteran flügelhornist Clark Terry on a joyous "Mack the Knife." Swingin' contains a single disc with 11 songs.
