The record
Recorded live at the tail end of 1961, this document catches Winter's sextet fresh off winning that year's Notre Dame Jazz Festival, sharp young players working a clean, swinging book with real ensemble discipline. Bernhardt's piano and the Rout-Whitsell frontline give it a collegiate polish that still bites.
