Review by Scott Yanow
On this rewarding set, the L.A. Four (altoist Bud Shank, acoustic guitarist Laurindo Almeida, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer Jeff Hamilton) perform a Bach melody, "Carinhoso" (originally recorded by Shank and Almeida back in 1954), "Just Friends," a "Love" medley ("Love for Sale" and "Love Walked In"), and Chick Corea's "Spain." Shank sticks exclusively to alto for the date, leaving his flute in its case, and the result is a more high-powered program than usual. Recommended. https://www.allmusic.com/album/just-friends-mw0000690297

Crítica de Scott Yanow
En este gratificante set, los L.A. Four (el contralto Bud Shank, el guitarrista acústico Laurindo Almeida, el bajista Ray Brown y el batería Jeff Hamilton) interpretan una melodía de Bach, «Carinhoso» (grabada originalmente por Shank y Almeida en 1954), «Just Friends», un popurrí de «Love» («Love for Sale» y «Love Walked In») y «Spain» de Chick Corea. Shank se ciñe exclusivamente al contralto para la cita, dejando la flauta en su estuche, y el resultado es un programa más potente de lo habitual. Recomendable. https://www.allmusic.com/album/just-friends-mw0000690297
