The record
A 1956 West Coast date built around Duran's clean, single-note lines, with Dundane's clarinet and tenor adding a woodier voice against the standard guitar-trio format. Understated and swinging, it's a rare early showcase for a guitarist who spent much of his career as a first-call sideman rather than a leader.
