It's also hugely enjoyable in its own right, throwing a particular spotlight on Sebastian Weigle's affectionate, alert conducting." Gramophone |

Howard Alden (guitar) Dan Barrett (trombone) Frank Tate (bass) Jackie Williams (drums) Chuck Wilson (wind)
The A.B.Q salutes Buck Clayton [ Concord Records / CD - released 1/Jul/1989 ] It is surprising that the Alden-Barrett quintet was one of the top small swing groups of the late '80s, creating an unusual sound that often recalled the John Kirby Sextet despite the difference in instrumentation.
