For this rare outing away from the Concord label, the young tenor saxophonist Scott Hamilton (whose mixture of various swing-based players resulted in his own distinctive sound) is heard on two sets with either Hank Jones or Tommy Flanagan on piano, bassist George Mraz and drummer Connie Kay. As usual, Hamilton sticks mostly to medium-tempo standards, also playing a few warm ballads, an original blues and a heated rendition of "Crazy Rhythm." The CD reissue of this fine set adds "The Shadow of Your Smile" to the program. ~ Scott Yanow
