This Savoy CD is a duplicate of the original LP although it lacks the fine liner notes included on the Arista/Savoy 1978 LP. The four selections (which unfortunately total under 34 minutes) are excellent, particularly a fun version of
Horace Silver's blues "Opus De Funk" in which vibraphonist
Milt Jackson, flutist
Frank Wess and pianist
Hank Jones have a long tradeoff. The quintet (which also includes bassist
Eddie Jones and drummer
Kenny Clarke) swings nicely throughout the three blues and lone ballad ("You Leave Me Breathless"). This is not essential, but it is enjoyable music.
