4.0 out of 5 stars Criss takes off on strong set from 1967, September 23, 2003

This review is from: Up Up & Away (Audio CD)

This set is notable for the presence of guitarist Tal Farlow. The highlight is the sax-guitar trade-offs on Charlie Parker's "Scrapple from the Apple". Strong solos throughout from Criss uplift the more pedestrian material. Pianist Cedar Walton, bassist Bob Cranshaw, and drummer Lenny McBrowne provide solid support.
