Title: One of Wilber's best
Product review: A monster recording for Wilber, one of his best. Made in Sweden in 1977 with Swedish all-stars including Ove Lind (cl) and Lars Erstrand (vibes), it's a date that found everyone definitely in the mood to play. The CD opens with a superb swinging version of JUBILEE, with Wilber and Lind both playing clarinet. In fact, all the best tracks feature the two playing clarinet. LIMEHOUSE BLUES is excellent, but the supreme performance comes on AFTER YOU'VE GONE, taken way up-tempo with terrific solos from everyone. On some of the slower tunes (SUNDAY, THERE'S A SMALL HOTEL) Bob switches to soprano to good effect. The whole CD is 60 minutes of solid swinging, tasty mainstream jazz. Definitely worth checking out.
