The record
A mid-'50s Epic date built around a warm, singing trumpet tone rather than after-hours fireworks -- Davis worked the studio session circuit around New York, and that pedigree shows in the polish here. Easy-listening horn jazz for a slow evening, pressed in the label's mid-decade push into mood-driven instrumental albums.
