Look At Al Cohn, He's So Drunk He Thinks He's Yusef Lateef!

Oh, no shade being cast on Cohn, far from it. Especially from this time (1974), the guy was soaring. I just think it's funny how you take two guys who you would not think of in the same breath, give them a tenor and the facts of Lester Young, and they come out using the horn the same way, maybe with more or less different ideas/projections. Same thing only different. Life is beautifully funny like that sometimes, especially when the expressive and the mechanical intersect.

Apart from that, this is a pretty good record by Teo, more or less unknown best as I can tell, Uneven as hell, as most of his self-released Teo Records things were, but good.
