Review
by Scott Yanow
This is an odd LP. The first session is a conventional one with vibraphonist Milt Jackson, tenor-saxophonist Jimmy Heath, pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Richard Davis and drummer Connie Kay performing Heath's recent "Gingerbread Boy," Duke Ellington's "I Got It Bad" and a pair of Jackson originals. The flip side substitutes two guitars for Flanagan's piano and uses bossa nova rhythms in hopes of getting a hit. Milt does play well on "I Love You" and Lillian Clark's vocal on "Jazz 'N' Samba" is fine but "The Oo-Oo Bossa Noova" is strictly for those listeners who are nostalgic for Car 54, Where Are You.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Este es un LP extraño. La primera sesión es convencional con el vibrafonista Milt Jackson, el tenor-saxofonista Jimmy Heath, el pianista Tommy Flanagan, el bajista Richard Davis y el batería Connie Kay interpretando el reciente "Gingerbread Boy" de Heath, "I Got It Bad" de Duke Ellington y un par de originales de Jackson. La otra cara sustituye el piano de Flanagan por dos guitarras y utiliza ritmos de bossa nova con la esperanza de conseguir un éxito. Milt toca bien en "I Love You" y la voz de Lillian Clark en "Jazz 'N' Samba" está bien pero "The Oo-Oo Bossa Noova" es estrictamente para aquellos oyentes nostálgicos de Car 54, Where Are You.
