Benny Carter
, 87 at the time of this recording, could pass musically for 57. His alto playing is as flawless as ever but 79-year-old trumpeter
Harry "Sweets" Edison
very much sounds his age and falters constantly throughout the date. Pianist
Cedar Walton
(who sounds for probably the only time in his career like
Oscar Peterson
), guitarist
Mundell Lowe
, bassst
Ray Brown
and drummer
Jeff Hamilton
make up a strong rhythm section but
Edison
and the so-so material cause this session to fall far short of its potential. ~ Scott Yanow
