Local boys make good (jazz), and Butler is where, in 1947, Ross Barbour, his brother Don, their cousin Bob Flanigan and buddy Hal Kratzsch formed a quartet called the Toppers when they were freshmen there. They became the Four Freshmen after their discovery by Kenton at Denton, Ohio's Esquire Lounge. Stan celebrates his discovery with a delighted audience in this 1986 recording (originally a 2-record set) that includes 18 smooth and smokin' (all accompanied) jazz hits, from 'There Will Never Be Another You,' 'After You,' 'Byrd Avenue,' 'Girl Talk' and 'When The Feeling Hits You' to 'Walk On By,' 'Brand New Key,' 'Teach Me Tonight,' 'Summer Has Gone,' 'Come Back To Me' and 'Walk Softly.' All present are having big fun, and so, listening in, are we!
