The record
The big ones of the title turn out to be 'Moon River', 'Love Me Tender', 'Midnight In Moscow' and 'Fly Me To The Moon' -- a popular-song programme cut for New Jazz in 1963. Poindexter is credited on soprano and alto saxophone both, over Gildo Mahones, George Tucker and Jimmie Smith. No pretence about what it is.
