Personnel: Mundell Lowe (guitar); Dick Hyman (piano); Trigger Alpert (bass); Ed Shaughnessy (drums). Originally released on Riverside (204). This special collectors edition is digitally remastered from original analog master tapes. Personnel: Mundell Lowe (guitar); Dick Hyman (piano, celesta, organ); Ed Shaugnessy, Ed Shaughnessy (drums). Audio Remasterer: Phil DeLancie. Liner Note Author: Orrin Keepnews. Recording information: New York, NY (08/27/1955/10/04/1955). Unknown Contributor Roles: Dick Hyman; Ed Shaughnessy; Trigger Alpert. Most of this set is essentially straightahead bebop with guitarist Mundell Lowe heard in top form on such numbers as "Will You Still Be Mine," "I'll Never Be the Same," "All of You" and "Cheek to Cheek." The wild card here is Dick Hyman who, in addition to piano and some celeste on "The Night We Called It a Day," mostly plays organ. His tone is thin and restrained, almost as if he were playing a cheap electric piano; Jimmy Smith would not make his presence known for another year. However Lowe is the main voice throughout this fairly colorful Riverside quartet date (also including supportive playing by bassist Trigger Alpert and drummer Ed Shaughnessy) which has been reissued on CD in the OJC series. ~ Scott Yanow
