The record
A late-'50s Prestige house-band affair pairing Teddy Charles's cool, ringing vibes with Mal Waldron's angular, blues-rooted piano -- an unusual chamber-jazz frontline that trades horns for mallets. Farmer and Segal keep things spare and unhurried, letting the vibraphone-piano dialogue carry the record's quietly cerebral mood.
