Gene Harris / Scott Hamilton Quintet – At Last (Full Album)

“This matchup by pianist Gene Harris and tenor saxophonist Scott Hamilton, in a quintet that also includes guitarist Herb Ellis, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer Harold Jones, is fun although it does not reach the excitement level one might expect. The ballads work best, while the stomps never really catch fire or explode. Harris and Hamilton always play at a high level, but their collaboration falls short of being the expected classic despite some good moments.” – Scott Yanow/AllMusic.

The Three Sounds – Moods

Moodsis an album by jazz group The Three Sounds released in 1961 on the Blue Note label.

Reception. The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 4 stars stating “The Three Sounds open their signature sound a bit on the romantic Moods. They retain the same light touch that made their early albums so enjoyable, but they add more textures to the mix… on the whole, Moods is an endearing collection of appealing mainstream jazz”.

Personnel: Gene Harris – piano Andrew Simpkins – bass Bill Dowdy – drums
