The record
Four tenors turn up in the credits -- Davis, Coleman Hawkins, Buddy Tate, Arnett Cobb -- with Shirley Scott's organ underneath, and "Very Saxy" is the honest title for what that produces. Jerome Richardson doubles baritone and flute, Steve Pulliam adds trombone, George Duvivier and Arthur Edgehill hold the bottom. Five tracks, a Prestige compilation from 1969 in stereo, PR 7710.
