DESCRIPTION:
- Red Rodney has been playing Bebop for 50 years, dating back to his presence in one of Charlie Parker's groups. Red seems to have a knack for attracting outstanding new musicians and he strikes gold in alto and tenorman Chris Potter. They are all past and present, the Rodney quintet members and it shows on this magnificently recorded audiophile pressing. The group romps its way through bop staples "Woody 'N' You", "Little Suede Shoes", "Confirmation" and "Crazeology" among others.
