The record
A Texas tenor summit cut for Riverside, pairing Clay with fellow Dallas-bred saxophonist David "Fathead" Newman over Wynton Kelly's springy comping and the rock-solid Sam Jones/Art Taylor rhythm team. Big-toned, blues-soaked tenor jousting that captures the Southwestern tenor tradition finding its footing in New York.
