The emphasis on this ballad-oriented set (which was originally released on the Fat Cat's Jazz label) is on cornetist
Wild Bill Davison's melodic variations. His highly expressive playing during a quintet outing with pianist
John Eaton, rhythm guitarist Steve Jordan, bassist Jack Lesberg and drummer
Cliff Leeman is full of emotion, with each note and growl standing out; "My Honey's Lovin' Arms" is about the only stomp. "Duet" is a leftover track from a 1968 album with trombonist Herb Gardner and clarinetist Tommy Gwaltney. ~ Scott Yanow
