Personnel: Teddy Edwards (tenor saxophone); Howard McGhee (trumpet); Phineas Newborn, Jr. (piano); Ed Thigpen (drums). Recording information: Contemporary's Studio, Los Angeles, CA (05/15/1961/05/17/1961). Unknown Contributor Role: Phineas Newborn, Jr. Tenor saxophonist Teddy Edwards and trumpeter Howard McGhee had played together regularly from 1945 to 1947. For their recorded reunion, they are assisted by the masterful pianist Phineas Newborn, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Ed Thigpen. Edwards, McGhee, and Brown contributed one new song apiece which alternates with a trio of standards ("You Stepped Out of a Dream," "Misty" and Charlie Parker's "Perhaps"). The trumpeter was having a short-lived comeback at the time and he had largely regained his earlier form. Edwards sounds as strong as ever and Newborn was an up-and-coming talent. Their collaboration for this boppish date is generally quite memorable. ~ Scott Yanow
