Peter Friedman Posted January 22, 2020 Report Posted January 22, 2020 This is (for me) a 5 Star recording. Fontana demonstrates why he is one of the all time great trombone player. Al Cohn is simply marvelous, and Richard Wyands plays damn good as he always does. Quote

I really enjoyed it.  Yeah - great Tubby Hayes session, in chaotic circumstances. RRK’s solo on the ballad feature (without mouthpiece) is astonishing and must have dropped some jaws in the studio. First heard it on the RRK Complete Mercury box. Quote
