This is one of the more obscure J.J. Johnson LPs. On six of the ten songs, the
great trombonist is joined by four others, while the remaining four tracks (the
main reasons to search for this album) feature him in a quartet with pianist
Hank Jones, bassist Richard Davis and drummer Walter Perkins. Johnsons writing
on the larger group pieces lifts the material, which is all taken from Broadway
shows, while his playing on the quartet tracks is up to his usual level. Some of
the songs are now forgotten, but My Favorite Things, Make Someone Happy and Put
on a Happy Face are exceptions. This album has some good music, but it will be
very difficult to find.
