The record
A trumpeter better known for section work with Mingus and Gil Evans steps out front here, backed by a sharp, versatile quartet including Leo Wright's alto and flute. A 1960 date that captures the era's hard-bop vocabulary through a lesser-heard voice, worth a spin for Wyands' comping alone.
