I'm amazed at the efficiency of the market. Not plenty people know nearly this gem. You tin purchase this for a buck. Wow. CTI, during the menses represented past times this compilation, had a stable of outstanding players, all of whom would teach on to brand names for themselves inwards the emerging basis of commercial jazz.
Note, I didn't tell shine jazz. Rather, this was existent jazz played to a growing, cross-over audience. Music molded past times Creed Taylor (the CT inwards CTI) to motion people deeper into the jazz mainstream. George Benson, earlier he became a singer. John McLauglin every bit a side-man on Joe Farrell's gig. Grant Green mapping the territory for jam bands which would brand it a decade and-a-half later. Joe Beck introducing a then-unknown David Sanborn, together with the definitive Jim Hall collaborating alongside Art Farmer. And more.
