Tenor saxophonist
Buck Hill
made his debut as a leader with this release, cut when he was already 51. Reissued on CD with an alternate take of
"S.M.Y."
added, this is a superior quartet set matching
Hill
with pianist
Kenny Barron
, bassist
Buster Williams
and drummer
Billy Hart
.
received some initial publicity because of his unusual situation, being a mailman during the day and a part-time player at night. However, he certainly sounds like a world-class post-bop player on this date, exploring
Williams'
blues "Tokudo," two standards ("Yesterdays" and "Oleo"), and three of his own modal yet swinging originals. Recommended. ~ Scott Yanow
