Excellent music and playing, and (as always) excellent liner essay by Reinhard Goebel.

Yeah, I don't read liner notes that were written for initial contemporary releases, as they by definition lack any critical perspective (they're meant to sell albums).  I do read liner notes of historical reissues sometimes.

Also the great record with Coleman Hawkins and Pee Wee Russell.  And he was partly responsible for "The Sound of Jazz" the greatest jazz tv show ever.  But I do remember some of his liner notes reading like they were just tossed off for the money.
