Plenty of craft but no fire. Nothing wrong with it but you want to hear those horn players on more challenging settings. All did better sessions in that Era as sole leaders and of course did classics in the 60s and 70s. Kudos to David Weiss, the rare organizer who can make that sort of group meaningful.

JSngry Posted May 22, 2021 Author Report Posted May 22, 2021 This record fascinates me, especially the ballads (and "Cousins", which is really "How Long Has This Been Going On"). And Pete LaRoca!!!!!!!!! Quote
