The lineup of this jam session is quite remarkable with trumpeters {|Clifford Brown|}, {|Clark Terry|}, and {|Maynard Ferguson|}, altoist {|Herb Geller|}, tenor saxophonist {|Harold Land|}, {|Richie Powell|}, or {|Junior Mance|} on piano, {|Keeter Betts|} or {|George Morrow|} on bass, and drummer {|Max Roach|}. A nearly 15-minute {|What Is This Thing Called Love|} gives one the opportunity to compare the three very different trumpeters, Darn That Dream is a ballad feature for singer {|Dinah Washington|}, Move is taken at an incredible tempo which holds up for 14-and-a-half minutes and this set concludes with a four-song ballad medley; {|Brownie's|} playing on It Might as Well Be Spring is classic. A brilliant set that is highly recommended (and included in full on {|Clifford Brown|}'s massive {|EmArcy|} box). ~ Scott Yanow Less
