Synopsis

Album Description
The smoothest tenor sax playing heard in years! Modern jazz quintet versions of famous tunes, mainly from British dance bands of the thirties, give new meaning to worn-out definitions like "mainstream" and "revival." This disc features outstanding new performances by an American musician who C. Michael Bailey characterized as "the Frank Sinatra of the tenor saxophone" and "a master interpreter of standards."
