That's just the best. Swing, groove and joy--humans at their best.

Thad Jones really looks like his brother ELVIN, also speaks the same.

Respectfully from one trumpet player to another, who cares about the high notes ? This is not what this piece is about - Snooky Young lays down the standard for all lead players on this recording...simply sublime playing from the entire band!

I saw this band at Ronnie's around the same time. What an experience.
