The record
Larry Bunker's vibraphone is the fourth voice next to Hampton Hawes's piano, and it gives the quartet a light, ringing top end over Clarence Jones's bass and Lawrence Marable's drums. Eight short sides, 'Squeeze Me' and 'Move' among them. Ira Gitler wrote the notes; Prestige issued it as a ten-inch, LP 212, in 1955.
