Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars One of my absolute favorites.......2001-07-21

This CD is one of my all-time favorites. This full-length album is worth much more than [...] price, so if you like cool jazz, this will be the best value you've ever experienced.

However, many of the track are the same as a CD released under the title "Send in the Clowns" in 1993 by Pilz. The only difference is that "Somebody Loves Me" has three additional tracks at the end. If you already own the former, you may not want to buy the latter. If you own neither, you owe it to yourself to buy one of them!

5 out of 5 stars A delightful small-group date; Zoot is in top form........1998-05-05

Originally recorded in the mid-70s for Groove Merchant under the title "Nirvana," this is a delightful quartet date with Zoot on tenor and soprano, Bucky Pizzarelli (guitar), Milt Hinton (bass), and Buddy Rich (drums). Zoot is in wonderful form, loose and swinging, and the material--a mix of standards and originals--suits the group well. Zoot's solo on "Come Rain or Come Shine" contains echoes of his recording of the tune with Gerry Mulligan's Concert Jazz Band; it's one of his masterpieces. On "Gee Baby Ain't I Good to You" we even get to hear Zoot and Buddy Rich sing! The final four tracks are from another date. "Send in the Clowns" is a Bucky Pizzarelli solo, and the others are from a session with Lionel Hampton and Teddy Wilson. The LaserLight edition sounds fine, and it's a bargain.
