5.0 out of 5 stars WOW!, July 18, 2011

Just when I think I have everthing Jay & Kay ever made, out comes this CD. These guys were famous in the 50s for their wonderful trombone duo. It's a sextet combo, & it sounds like it was made yesterday. The only tune on it I've heard them play before is "It's all Right with me."

Amazon has a list of samples you can listen to, but, like all Jay & Kay albums it's a 5 star deal.

In the original liner notes, let me just quote some of it" The degree of influence that these two men have had the past several years is large.... And although sometimes their sound sounds indistinguishable.....As a matter of fact, in some of their musical qualities they are almost at opposite ends of the pole."

If you're not familiar with these guys, it's high time you were. There is one error in the liner notes, it's that this is a sextet, not a quintet.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Trombone Duo, January 26, 2001

This is a wonderful album by Kai Winding and J.J. Johnson. The recording quality is quite good, and the playing is spectacular. Their styles are so similar, and each can solo amazingly. The interplay is great, but more than anything I like the album because it seems like both are really having fun! The only reason I don't rate this 5 stars is that it is not quite as good as "The Great JJ and Kai" on the Impulse label.

This is one of the best JJ and Kai collaborations, two of the most outstanding jazz trombonists of all time. The alternate take tracks provide insight into how these greats refined their solos for the choice recordings that you typically hear.
