One of the best assets of the Count Basie Big Band in the 50s, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis was a frequent guest player in Europe in the 70s.
In the Spring of 76 Lockjaw went into a studio in Copenhagen with "the excellent Danish rhythm section" which "manage to coax some of the best playing from the tenor saxophonist since his days with Basie" (Gramophone).
"...The mood, as always with Davis, is a happy one. With the help of the fine, supportive rhythm section it becomes contagious, and ...it is an awful lot of fun to listen to." (Fanfare) |
