Zoot Sims - Quietly There: Plays Johnny Mandel (XRCD) (FLAC) torrent

Recorded 20th & 21st March 1984.

Review by Ron Wynn (AMG):
Norman Granz\'s idea to match Zoot Sims\' lyrical, swinging tenor sax with Johnny Mandel\'s equally arresting compositions was a masterful one. Sims\' tart, alternately lush and furious solos were wonderfully spotlighted on such tunes as \"Cinnamon and Cloves,\" \"Emily\" and \"Zoot.\" The six-tune session, recently issued on CD, also contains effective piano solos from Mike Wofford. The date\'s tour-de-force was its final selection, the wonderful \"Low Life,\" which Sims probed, illuminated and ultimately redefined via his solo.
