The album with Victor Feldman? I always found that a bit on the weak side, after all the fine groups before (Jaspar, Little ... then Flaganan Chambers Roach, the the two-brass band with Nat, the band with Clifford Jordan, Arthur Harper etc).

Yep, just me, I guess. I have strange ears. :)

In fact I played the sides with Feldman/Hayes maybe three times. You're right, they are really good. After the 5-tet 6-tet sides it *seems* deflating to come back to a quartet and shorter tracks, but it is really worth giving these some time in their own right.

It also gives a sense of trajectory to the set to loop back into the quartet format that it started with.
