Album Notes & Community Reviews
Expanding his signature pianoless format into a larger sextet arrangement, 'Mainstream of Jazz' benefits from richly textured counterpoint. The baritone saxophonist's writing ensures a spacious, transparent harmonic environment despite the increased density of the horn section.
