Swiss Suite

Swiss Suite is a live album by American jazz composer/arranger Oliver Nelson featuring performances by a big band with soloists Gato Barbieri (tenor sax) and Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson (alto sax).

The album was recorded at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1971 for the Flying Dutchman label.

[1][2] The Allmusic site awarded the album 3 stars stating "it is the nearly 27-minute "Swiss Suite" that dominates this album and although tenorman Gato Barbieri has a couple of raging solos, it is a five-minute segment when guest altoist Eddie "Cleanhead" Vinson plays the blues that is most memorable.

Vinson's classic spot alone is worth the price of this hard-to-find LP.".
