The record
A West Coast budget-label date built on the tight, arranger-savvy chemistry of the Marty Paich circle -- Dave Pell's reeds and Bob Enevoldsen's valve trombone give the ensemble its cool, chamber-jazz sheen. Ronnie Lang leads a compact all-star date squarely in the era's laid-back, unfussy Pacific jazz mode.
