One of the most gifted improvisers of all times in a totally informal session. Owners of the old ”Wave” long play long wished for this reissue because the former contained only Warne´s solos, while this CD includes the entire performances of most tunes (with several additional solos by the saxophonist as well as excellent piano and bass solos). One of the least known and surely one of the best Warne Marsh records, ranking with Lee Konitz´s ”Motion” (although in a much more relaxed key) as an example of truly spontaneous music at its highest level. This CD is an excellent example of a well prepared reissue which clearly advances the patchy quality of the original LP (although the brushes are better heared on the original, mainly on the first tune). Highly recomended.
