The record

Vibraphone is the surprise here -- Alan Dawson's, ringing under Houston Person's tenor while Cedar Walton, Bob Cranshaw and Frankie Jones hold the floor. The program leans on pop of the moment, 'Up, Up And Away' and 'Girl Talk' beside the title strut, and Person plays all of it with a broad, patient tone. Prestige, 1967, Don Schlitten producing.
