Return to alto acres

Richie Cole gjorde sig känd som en altsaxofonist i den klassiska bebop-traditionen, fastän född 1948 och alltså utan personlig kontakt med bebop-pionjärerna. På det här albumet samarbetar han med en annan av de stora moderna altsaxofonisterna, Art Pepper. Producenten Herb Wong har skrivit en informativ baksidestext.
"On his first LP for Palo Alto, Richie Cole got to meet up for the only time on record with altoist Art Pepper. Together with pianist Roger Kellaway, bassist Bob Magnusson and drummer Billy Higgins, Cole and Pepper play four basic originals, "Things We Did Last Summer" (Cole's feature) and "Broadway." What is particularly unusual about this date is that Cole not only plays alto but tenor and baritone while Pepper also gives listeners a taste of his clarinet. The historic bebop encounter has unfortunately been long out-of-print since Palo Alto is long defunct." (Scott Yanow, allmusic.com)
