The record

A rare UK date for Riverside, cut in 1960 with two horns trading lean, hard-bop lines over Brian Dee's piano and the dual-drum pairing of Eyden and Mann. Vic Ash and Harry Klein give this session a tight, road-tested British club sound often overlooked next to the label's American catalogue.
