The record

A vibes date stacked with heavyweight company -- Webster's tenor and Terry's trumpet trading warmth with a rhythm section of Jones, Hinton, and Johnson that could swing anything asked of it. Impulse! caught Hampton loose and unhurried, more small-group conversation than showman's spectacle.
