Description
The widely-celebrated 'Blues-ette' album (1959) by trombonist Curtis Fuller in its entirety, plus alternate takes from the same session and three tracks from the 1957 album, 'Jazz! It's Magic'.
Featuring an all-star quintet: Curtis Fuller (trombone), Benny Golson (tenor saxophone), Tommy Flanagan (piano), Jimmy Garrison (bass), Al Harewood (drums). Hackensack, New Jersey, May 21, 1959.
"Here is a good example of how simple material plus taste and thought can produce an album of lasting beauty. An uncluttered method of theme statement, added to the abundant use of minor keys and the remarkable blend of the two horns, gives this LP its charm." - Don Demichael, DownBeat
