The great baritonist
Pepper Adams is teamed up with the adventurous trumpeter
Kenny Wheeler and veteran pianist
Hank Jones for this live quintet date.
Wheeler, although often associated with the avant-garde, has never had any difficulty playing changes and his strong style clearly inspired
Adams. Together they perform three of the baritonist's originals,
Thad Jones "Tis,"
Wheeler's "Old Ballad," and the standard "Alone Together." ~ Scott Yanow
