The record
Hines leads a trio date that swells into something bigger once Hawkins and Eldridge sit in, veterans trading the easy authority of players who'd been crossing paths since the swing era. Tucker and Jackson keep it loose and unhurried, letting the horns and that stride-schooled piano do the talking.
