The record

A 1960 date that pairs Wilber's swing-schooled clarinet and sax with Clark Terry's puckish trumpet, backed by the rock-solid Duvivier-Francis rhythm team and stride-rooted Dick Wellstood on piano. Mainstream jazz played by musicians equally fluent in swing-era vocabulary and postwar bebop, cut for the small Classic Jazz label.
