Buddy DeFranco & The Oscar Peterson Quartet
Description
The six selections on this album feature the brilliant clarinetist Buddy DeFranco with the Oscar Peterson Quartet (Peterson's trio plus drummer Louie Bellson).
"While all the tunes are standards," wrote Scott Yanow for AllMusic, "DeFranco and Peterson produce plenty of fireworks with the majority of the numbers being taken up-tempo. DeFranco sounds flawless on clarinet, making it sound so easy to play lightning-fast runs; few other clarinetists have ever come close."
