Title: Jazz at its most accessible
Review: This is Pat at his most pleasing and outgoing. Great jazz musicians like Miles and Satchmo also had this ability to put out albums that have wide appeal. For me this album had the same kind of stature in the 90's that a classic album like Brubeck's "Take Five" had in the fifties and early sixties. The album reaches out to the listener, but still has enough sophistication to please more demanding critics. Not all of the songs obtain the same heights as the best material on this album, but there are no clunkers.This is one of the albums that I would like all jazz reviewers to review, just so I can know to ignore, or at least hold suspect, those who pan it. If you are snobby enough not to like this pleasing music, then your tastes are wildly divergent from mine.
