The record
This Affinity reissue gathers a New York date stacked with talent -- Clark Terry, Charlie Rouse, and Julius Watkins's French horn framing Pettiford's fluent bass and cello. Duke Jordan and Jimmy Cleveland deepen arrangements built from Pettiford's taste for bop-rooted, chamber-toned writing.
