leads the sextet but most significant is the playing of the underrated clarinetist

in one of his best recordings. Filling out the fine swing-based group are trombonist
Benny Morton
, pianist
Claude Hopkins
, bassist
Arvell Shaw
and drummer
Buzzy Drootin
. Highlights include
"Struttin' with Some Barbeque,"
"I Would Do Anything for You" and "I Found a New Baby." ~ Scott Yanow
