The record
West Coast heavyweights convene under Rumsey's banner with Bob Cooper's writing steering the session -- a Lighthouse lineup stacked deep with Shank, Candoli, Rosolino, and Feldman moving between vibes, piano, and congas. Cooper's charts push past head-solos-head into more ambitious voicings, a snapshot of California cool reaching for structure without losing its swing.
