Score:
O’s Notes: This is a seductive set starting with Sean Jones (t) on “Chillin’ At Da Grill”. He hands off to another trumpeter, Clark Terry who blows the sweet melody on “The Nearness of You”. Barbara Morrison (vocals), Joey DeFrancesco (B3), Anthony Wilson (g) and Terry Gibbs (vibes) play “Evil Gal Blues” with a lot of soul. Ron Blake’s sax was just the right ingredient on “Making Love To You” before George Shearing (p) wraps the set with “When Lights Are Low”.
