Is that as good as it's title and cover art suggest?

It is actually good, unironically. It is basically a hi fi record but it really pops and is full of big blaring stereoscopic ideas.

I've been exploring studio system jazz records for a month or two now. A lot of them are very dreary corporate affairs, but then you do hit some amazing records sometimes.

TTK is the resident expert of course.

Thanks, I had a quick stream and it did sound interesting

TTK is to be deferred to most definitely

Conrad Herwig - The Latin Side Of Joe Henderson (Half Note). I do enjoy this one, but then again, with Lovano on tenor & Cuber on bari, how could it be bad? :)

Still believe that the first "Latin Side Of ...." dealing with John Coltrane was the strongest effort .... or was this music just better suited for "latinisation" 🧐🤔 ....

Looking at the back cover, this appears to be a Marty Sheller joint.

Yeah, that and three other tunes. It's a shame that the description doesn't mention him,
but the comments from Everland are a bit strange at times.

It's enough to make one consider that the leaders are fictitious characters and that the whole thing is a Sheller shadow project.

I wondered about that considering that Corchado seems to be a bit elusive with pretty much only two "hits" - possibly both written by Sheller (?) You know that "Latin Explosion" show I listen to on our radio station? I could ask Juan Montenegro if he has any insight. I'll have to contact him on the dreaded Faceplant site tho.

Here's a bit of history concerning Corchado and "Mosquitos"

This shows different writers for the two songs on the single.
