For the present project, we've prepared no less than four Tommy Turrentine gems, all presented here in their debut recordings. In his last years Tommy, though not as active as a player, composed a major body of new work with the encouragement of his publisher and longtime advocate Don Sickler. My thanks to Don for making these tunes available. Here is the alternate take.

Impresionante música, una de las mejores secciones rítmicas que he escuchado. Latin jazz de altísima calidad, arreglos insuperables y solistas que dicen algo. Me encanta este disco. Palmieri un genio. jazztapronto
This schorching live set from legendary trumpet player Freddie Hubbard captures the bebop icon at the peak of his powers. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 8, 2023

This is a wonderful album! Dave Douglas is one of my heroes. He's more than a great musician. He has a vision for the music and a feeling for putting together a group which is unique. So, beside Joey Baron (another heavyweight and one of my absolute favourite drummers) he invited some young cats to this session. They play just great and make sure that this music sounds totally fresh, whilst at the same time being deeply rooted in the jazz tradition. Florian Arbenz
