The record
A vibes-led session cut for Savoy at the tail end of 1960, with Bobby Jaspar's flute lending a cool, airy counterweight to Steve Kuhn's crisp piano work. Rae and drummer Jake Hanna keep things light on their feet -- a lesser-known date worth digging for the Kuhn and Jaspar pairing alone.
