YES !!! I have a CD that pairs Under Fire with Bolivia. TREMENDOUS music.
Gato's run of albums for Impulse is damn impressive--but I think his Flying Dutchman records hit me even harder. I think it has something to do with those amazing bands.

- Chapter 2: Hasta Siempre

Two-tenor combos are fun. I like how they can flex between sounding like any other small-group unit, while at other times making sounds that approximate a big band in miniature.
Unlike the first Sphere LP, this second album features compositions by the band members.
Yes!
And this one too (from Umbria Jazz in '86):
Pumpkin's Delight (Red)
