The second in a series of albums that pay tribute to Mr. Jones by offering some fine rerecorded versions of some of his original jazz pieces. The record almost plays like a jazz timeline, sounding like a selection from the Benny Goodman Quartet's Together Again LP here, and sounding like the title tune off of Coltrane's Blue Train Lp there.
