Review:On his first LP for Palo Alto,
Richie Cole got to meet up for
the only time on record with altoist
Art
Pepper. Together with pianist
Roger Kellaway, bassist
Bob Magnusson and drummer
Billy Higgins,
Cole
and
Pepper play four basic originals,
"Things We Did Last Summer" (Cole's
feature) and "Broadway." What is particularly unusual about this date is
that
Cole
not only plays alto but tenor and baritone while
Pepper also gives listeners a
taste of his clarinet. The historic bebop encounter has unfortunately been
long out-of-print since Palo Alto is long defunct. -- Scott Yanow, All
