  • They Say...

    The emphasis of this excellent session is on lesser-known swing standards. Guitarist Howard Alden (in a trio with bassist Lynn Seaton and drummer Mel Lewis) welcomes either Ken Peplowski (doubling on tenor and clarinet) or cornetist Warren Vache on eight of the 11 selections. It is particularly rewarding to hear such songs as "You Showed Me the Way," Duke Ellington's "Purple Gazelle," Charlie Parker's "Back Home Blues" and Django Reinhardt's "Tears" getting revived.
