This is the second album by
, an all-star sextet of young jazz veterans totally steeped in the hard bop tradition and group dynamic of
and
's classic ensembles.
, the rising tenor sax phenom, trombonist
(
,
Origin), and
, the talented and ubiquitous bassist, are probably the best known players here. But all the band's members are respected figures on the New York scene with long lists of impressive credits. And these guys really know what they're doing, whether it's reworking standards like
"What Kind of Fool Am I?" and "These Foolish Things," or tearing through a number of fine neo-hard-bop originals. ~ Joel Roberts
