The record

Somerset was a budget label, but this after-hours set of standards pulls from LA's Lighthouse and Capitol studio ranks -- Rowles, Mitchell, Bernhart -- backing a brassy, big-toned horn. Quiet muscle and unhurried phrasing mark this one as more than its cut-rate origins suggest.

Session personnel

  • Red Mitchell — bass
