Tracklist
01. Davenport Blues (4:28)
02. Straight No Chaser (6:22)
03. Ballad Of The Sad Young Men (4:02)
04. Joy Spring (2:51)
05. Django (8:08)
06. Chant Of The Weed (4:27)
07. La Nevada (Theme) (6:18)
A follow-up to New Bottle, Old Wine, this Gil Evans set has colorful arrangements of five jazz standards plus "Ballad of the Sad Young Men" and Evans' "Theme." Using a band consisting of three trumpets, three trombones, a French horn, Bill Barber's tuba, soprano-saxophonist Steve Lacy (the first important post-swing player on his instrument), tenor saxophonist Budd Johnson (on half of the program), and a four-piece rhythm section (including the leader's piano), Evans contributes some very memorable written ensemble passages, most notably on "Straight No Chaser." In addition to Lacy and Johnson, the main soloists are trumpeter Johnny Coles, trombonists Curtis Fuller and Jimmy Cleveland, and guitarist Ray Crawford. Highly recommended.~Scott Yanow
