Review
Following a stint leading the ghost band of Glen Miller between 1966 and 1974, Buddy DeFranco made several recordings under his own name in 1977, although this live date at Rick's Cafe in Chicago first became available commercially in 1999. With pianist Willie Pickens (a Chicago legend who still deserves greater recognition outside his home town), bassist Todd Coolman, and drummer Jerry Coleman, the veteran clarinetist is playing in top form with his pickup group. None of the tunes are particularly surprising choices, as they had to pick material familiar to everyone, but DeFranco and Pickens clearly inspire one another with their playing, as five of the seven tracks extend over ten minutes. The lovely interpretation of "Yesterdays" and a driving Latin-flavored "Love for Sale" are among the high points of this warmly recommended live set.

Revisar
Tras un período al frente de la banda fantasma de Glen Miller entre 1966 y 1974, Buddy DeFranco hizo varias grabaciones con su propio nombre en 1977, aunque esta fecha en vivo en el Rick's Cafe de Chicago estuvo disponible comercialmente por primera vez en 1999. Con el pianista Willie Pickens (una leyenda de Chicago que aún merece un mayor reconocimiento fuera de su ciudad natal), el bajista Todd Coolman y el baterista Jerry Coleman, el veterano clarinetista está tocando en plena forma con su grupo de camioneros. Ninguno de los temas es particularmente sorprendente, ya que tuvieron que elegir material familiar para todos, pero DeFranco y Pickens claramente se inspiran mutuamente con su forma de tocar, ya que cinco de los siete temas se extienden a lo largo de diez minutos. La encantadora interpretación de "Yesterdays" y el impactante "Love for Sale" con sabor latino son algunos de los puntos culminantes de este recomendado set en vivo.
