Perkins and Kamuca: 2 swingin' Tenorists
The speed and cleverness of good West Coast tenor saxophone guys is engaging. It is remarkable how their kind of jazz lifts us people who respond to fine music. The lilting and compelling sounds of two great tenor sax guys, Bill Perkins and Richie Kamuca were what I listened to this afternoon. And it was a fun experience. The big boss sounds of the crafty Bill Perkins and the sleek Richie Kamuca made me feel truly great. Two standards in this set were just right for me today. Yeah, I liked, 'All of Me and 'Sweet and Lovely.' The bass work of Red Mitchell and the vigorous and interesting drumming of Mel Lewis was a lot of fun, too. Enjoy your great Friday night and have a blast of a weekend all of you out there.
