The record
A budget-label date that still stacks up on paper alone -- Hawkins fronting Thad Jones, Eddie Costa, Duvivier and Osie Johnson, a small-group frontline built for swinging, harmonically alert postbop. Costa's doubling on vibes adds a lighter, chiming contrast to Hawkins' broad tenor tone.
