Review
by Scott Yanow
Kenny Dorham was always underrated throughout his career, not only as a trumpeter but as a composer. Whistle Stop features seven of his compositions, none of which were picked up later by any of the Young Lions of the '90s despite their high quality and many fresh melodies. Dorham teams up with tenor-saxophonist Hank Mobley (who had recorded with him previously, along with Art Blakey and Max Roach), pianist Kenny Drew, bassist Paul Chambers, and drummer Philly Joe Jones for a set of lively, fresh, and consistently swinging music. This is a generally overlooked near-classic set.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Kenny Dorham siempre fue infravalorado a lo largo de su carrera, no sólo como trompetista sino como compositor. Whistle Stop presenta siete de sus composiciones, ninguna de las cuales fue recogida posteriormente por ninguno de los Young Lions de los 90, a pesar de su gran calidad y de sus muchas melodías frescas. Dorham se asocia con el tenor-saxofonista Hank Mobley (que ya había grabado con él, junto con Art Blakey y Max Roach), el pianista Kenny Drew, el bajista Paul Chambers y el baterista Philly Joe Jones para un conjunto de música animada, fresca y con mucho swing. Se trata de un conjunto casi clásico que generalmente se pasa por alto.
