Although the title and even the cover photo have been changed, this CD reissue has the same music as was earlier issued as
Counceltation; the "bonus cut" "Woody 'n You" has also been reissued on
Sonority. In any case, the program features the underrated but talented
Curtis Counce Quintet of 1956-1957, a group consisting of the bassist/leader, trumpeter
Jack Sheldon, tenor saxophonist
Harold Land, pianist
Carl Perkins, and drummer
Frank Butler.
Counce contributed two originals but otherwise the band sticks to jazz standards, with some of the best moments being on "Too Close for Comfort," "Mean to Me," and
Charlie Parker's "Big Foot."
