Sam Most - Im Nuts About The Most....Sam That Is! '1955/2014

Tracks list

Sweet flute work from the great Sam Most – a player who really shone
brightly during his 50s recordings for Bethlehem Records – of which this
is one of the best! Sams got a mean, lean quality to his solos – a mode
that rivals that of Frank Wess on the instrument at the time, and may well beat
Herbie Mann – able to step lively on more boppish numbers, but step back
into these soulful lines at just the right moments. The rest of the group has a
tight feel too – modern, but a bit playful too – with Marty Flax
on baritone, Barry Galbraith on guitar, Billy Triglia on piano, and Oscar
Pettiford on bass. Titles include Deed I Do, Broadway, Smiles, Dont Worry Bout
Me, How Deep Is The Ocean, and Tea For Two.
