Two of trumpeter Art Farmer's earlier sessions as a leader are reissued
on this CD in the OJC series. Farmer teams up with an all-star quintet
(which includes tenor-saxophonist Sonny Rollins, pianist Horace Silver,
bassist Percy Heath and drummer Kenny Clarke) for four songs and
dominates a quartet (with pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Addison Farmer
and drummer Herbie Lovelle) on six other tunes. Farmer's sound is
lyrical even on the uptempo pieces and he is heard throughout in his
early prime. Highlights include "Soft Shoe," "I'll Take Romance,"
"Autumn Nocturne" and an uptempo "Gone with the Wind." One should note
that the programming differs from what is listed, with "Soft Shoe"
(which should have been the opener) actually appearing fifth and the
songs listed as appearing second through fifth moving up to first
through fourth. Despite that flaw, the music is quite enjoyable and a
must for 1950s bop collectors. by Scott Yanow
