The record
Late-fifties Hawkins in easy, swinging company, Buck Clayton's mellow trumpet trading phrases with that huge, unmistakable tenor tone. Hank Jones and Ray Brown keep things unhurried and impeccably in the pocket -- mainstream jazz played by masters who'd long since stopped needing to prove anything.
