One of jazz's most admired saxophonists, Zoot Sims caresses some of Johnny Mandel's best known songs including, "A Time For Love," "Emily" and "Low Life." Norman Granz’s idea to match Zoot Sims’ lyrical, swinging tenor sax with Johnny Mandel’s equally arresting compositions was a masterful one. Sims’ tart, alternately lush and furious solos were wonderfully spotlighted on such tunes as “Cinnamon and Cloves,” “Emily” and “Zoot.” The six-tune session, recently issued on CD, also contains effective piano solos from Mike Wofford. The date’s tour-de-force was its final selection, the wonderful “Low Life,” which Sims probed, illuminated and ultimately redefined via his solo. ~ Allmusic tenor sax ZOOT SIMS piano MIKE WOFFORD bass CHUCK BERGHOFER drums NICK CEROLI >>> Płyty XRCD do odtworzenia we wszystkich typach czytników CD oraz DVD.
