Even with the saccharin orchestration and poor sound quality this has been on of my favs. Freddie does some of his best playing on this,IMO. Sorry you had to wait so long for this one. Especially if you have never heard it. T456

I've discovered this tune from Christican McBride's Number Two Express:
The final tune called "Little Sunflower" has an addictive groove and the fact that the recording sounds fabulous did't hurt. For a while I was using it as a dem track for evaluating gear.
Later I've got a'79 reissue of Milt Jackson Sunflower and realised the tune was originally composed by Freddie Hubbard! I just pulled it out and listening to it now and it doesn't sound too badly. ( by this time Van Gelder figured out how to record a piano properly! )
was a GREAT label, sometimes with big surprises. this is one. Don Sebesky is perhaps one of the biggest reasons for this. this was an era that straddled the 'sweetened with strings' tunes dominated (vide the charlie parker with strings album) and the modern jazz era.
this has long been one of my favorite albums period and a fave of the CTIs, and there are many of those, wes montgomery-a day in the life. sebesky is the common thread with personnel lists that many times had the same circle of players----herbie hancock, ron carter, airto moreira, and MANY more.
an exploration of CTI recordings would be a rewarding one.
