The record

A meeting of minds and marriage, cut for Candid at the tail end of 1960 with Charlie Mariano's alto twining around his wife Toshiko's crisp, Bud Powell-schooled lines. Cherico and Marshall keep things light and springy behind them, making this a quietly personal document of two distinct voices finding common ground.
