Album Notes & Community Reviews

Pairing the robust, heavily swinging tenor saxophone of Flip Phillips with the unmatched percussive energy of Buddy Rich, this trio date bristles with intense rhythmic momentum. Operating without a bass player, the arrangements demand immense interplay and spontaneous invention from the musicians. The session highlights the seamless transition of swing-era veterans adapting to the velocities of modern bebop.
