Concord Jazz: Collector's Series Sampler
(1990)

by
Various Artists
When Carl Jefferson established his Concord record label in the early '70s, he emphasized primarily West Coast swing-to-bop icons, and gave them an outlet to record music as they pleased. It lasted for two full decades, a testament to the continued viability of the music. This fortified the careers of many an aging superstar, and also allowed them ...

Lost in the Stars
(1977)

Ross Tompkins
Carl Jefferson was an unusual record label owner. Much like Norman Granz, he seemed to gravitate toward recording artists he admired, while not worrying whether a particular album might sell enough copies to break even. Ross Tompkins, though at the time of this recording was serving as the band pianist on The Tonight Show, was hardly a huge name ...

The melodic results are pleasant but sometimes a touch dull and generally lacking in excitement or any real surprises.

Scrimshaw
(1976)

by
Ross Tompkins
Tompkins plays solo piano in this album of all standards. It features elegant classicism in a jazz framework. The worth of this is that you finally get to hear the voice normally submerged in the big band context. This is a fine representation of Tompkins' worth. Michael G. Nastos, All Music Guide
