Cross Country Suite was composed by Nelson Riddle for Buddy DeFranco more than 50 years ago. The album was recorded in 1958; Nelson Riddle won a Grammy that year for this original series of eleven pieces describing various regions of the United States. The Riddle Family is happy to announce the reissue of this work fifty years after it was out on vinyl. The idea for this project first began when Nelson Riddle and Buddy DeFranco met when they both played in the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra. It is a unique collaboration highlighting each of their talents.
