The record
A drummer's showcase disguised as a big-band date -- Cohn stacks six percussionists (Persip, Lamond, Johnson, Cobb, Hayes, Lewis) across the session, trading feels while Hank Jones and Mundell Lowe anchor the changes. A witty sequel-in-spirit to the drum suite concept, arranged with the swing-era craft that made Cohn's writing as valuable as his tenor.
