| Recorded in September 1997, this session re unites Smith and Mitchell for the first time since the early 50's when the younger Smith used to sit in with Mitchell , Tommy Flannigan, Thad and Elvin Jones at various clubs in Detroit. Subsequently, Mitchell went on to work in the Lunceford, Millander, Gillespie, and Basie big bands. For a period he was Stevie Wonder's musical director. This was Mitchell's last recording before he passed away in 2001. Louis Smith is known to listeners of SteepleChase Jazz recordings as a leader of 11 previous sessions. His early recordings made for Blue Note are considered classics. Mark Turner is the youngest member of this frontline and has recorded extensively in the 90's most recently producing a series of CDs for Warner Brothers. The rhythm section of LaVerne, Anderson, and Drummond are found all over SteepleChase's offerings of the past 20 years and have done much to define the label's sound. Tunes include; "Autumn Leaves", "I Loves You Porgy", "My Romance" and others. Total time: 60:22. |
