Another gem of an album from the Impulse jazz catalog.Shelly Manne (on loan to Impulse from Contemporary) is featured as leader here in three different lineups: duo, trio and quartet. The quartet features Coleman Hawkins on sax and Hank Jones on piano. The trios utilize the magnificent playing of Eddie Costa on keyboards and vibes. Costa's work of the vibes on "The Sicks Of Us" is brilliant. George Duvivier is on bass throughout.
Review by Scott Yanow
This 1962 recording features five selections from a date featuring the great tenor Coleman Hawkins, pianist Hank Jones, bassist George Duvivier and drummer Shelly Manne. Both "Take the 'A' Train" and "Cherokee" find the group at times playing two tempos at once (Manne sticks to doubletime throughout "Cherokee") and showing that they had heard some of the avant-garde players. The most swinging piece, "Avalon," was previously available only on a sampler while "Me and Some Drums" features Hawkins and Manne in a very effective duet with the veteran tenor making his only recorded appearance on piano during the first half. This LP is rounded off by a pair of trio features for Eddie Costa (with Duvivier and Manne); one song apiece on vibes and drums. A very interesting set with more than its share of surprises.
