Album Notes & Community Reviews
Demonstrating immense versatility by splitting duties between tenor saxophone and flute, 'North, South, East...Wess' firmly establishes the leader's voice outside the Count Basie Orchestra. The session boasts a robust, blues-drenched groove, anchored by stellar rhythmic support and tightly coiled hard bop arrangements.
