The record
A tenor-and-trombone frontline led by the Johnson brothers, with Tommy Flanagan's crisp comping and the Duvivier-Persip team keeping things loose and unhurried. Budd Johnson's roots stretch back to the swing era, and this Prestige date finds him translating that lineage into relaxed, blues-soaked hard bop.
