  Description BABS GONZALES "VOILA" Hope Records LP-0001. Cover: EXCELLENT PLUS, Vinyl: EXCELLENT, Labels: NEAR MINT! FIRST PRESSING 1958 33 1/3 RPM 12-INCH LP RECORD/DEEP GROOVE PRESSING/PRIVATE LABEL PRESSING! BABS GONZALES was the ULTIMATE HIPSTER! He made the music, he lived the life and he wrote the book! Actually, he did write the "Dictionary of Jive Talk"! He was an integral player in the BE-BOP MOVEMENT of the late Forties! He and TADD DAMERON formed the first JAZZ VOCALESE group THREE BIPS AND A BOP! He wrote "Oop-Pop-Pa-Da" which was a hit recording for DIZZY GILLESPIE! He was a SONGWRITER, VOCALIST, PRODUCER, HUSTLER and RACONTEUR who was involved with most of the BOP JAZZ GIANTS! He totally lived the HIPSTER life-style and even recorded some albums of JIVE-TALKING HIPSTER TALES of his famous friends and some of their not-so-famous goofs! He was a very down cat, the MOST EXPUBIDENT CAT OF THEM ALL, the TOAST of New York, Hollywood, and Europe [The Continent!]. Yet, he left a small and obscure recorded legacy. This was the first Long-Player in BABS GONZALES career and he rounded up a select group of cats for this session! BOP JAZZ GIANTS blowing behind BABS here include JOHNNY GRIFFIN [who BABS worked closely with for many years!], CHARLIE ROUSE, LES SPANN, HORACE PARLAN, ROY HAYNES, RAY CRAWFORD and PECK MORRISON! Arrangements are by MELBA LISTON with backing vocals by THE MODERN SOUNDS! For lovers of BOP JAZZ, this is BABS' greatest recorded achievement with plenty of Cool Wailing! This was recorded for BABS own tiny New York label and made in very small numbers! This record is in EXCELLENT condition! [the cover has a 1-inch tear on the front, with discrete seam split repair on the whole spine and 6-inches on the bottom edge. NO other SPLITS or TEARS! the vinyl has plenty of shine and sparkle to it with light to moderate surface scuffs that cannot be heard when playing.] This record PLAYS EXCELLENT! I originally purchased this album from legendary Los Angeles Jazz record dealer LEON LEAVITT many years ago. SURE TO PLEASE! This is 1 of 12 EXTREMELY RARE BABS GONZALES RECORDS [LP & 45] in my current auctions! PERFECT for TRUE FANS of BABS GONZALES, BEAT GENERATION, HIPSTER JIVE and BOP JAZZ MUSIC!
