Review by Scott Yanow
Pianist Hampton Hawes' 1950s recordings for the Contemporary label are
at such a high level that they could all be given five stars. This
outing with bassist Red Mitchell, drummer Shelly Manne, and guitarist
Barney Kessel (who is a slight wild card) is also quite successful. Two
previously unreleased numbers ("Thou Swell" and "The Awful Truth") have
been added to the CD reissue. Highlights of the exciting bop date
include "Yardbird Suite," "There Will Never Be Another You," and "Love
Is Just Around the Corner."

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Las grabaciones del pianista Hampton Hawes de los años 50 para el sello
Contemporary están a un nivel tan alto que a todas ellas se les podría
dar cinco estrellas. Esta salida con el bajista Red Mitchell, el
baterista Shelly Manne y el guitarrista Barney Kessel (que es un ligero
comodín) también es bastante exitosa. Dos números inéditos ("Thou Swell"
y "The Awful Truth") se han añadido a la reedición del CD. Lo más
destacado de la emocionante cita bop incluye "Suite Yardbird", "There
Will Never Be Another You" y "Love Is Just Around the Corner".
