How does this one compare to the four Minton's records, Tenor Scene, and the three "Sets", and to the Twofer with the same name?

Looks interesting. I only know his work with Peter Leitch.

I only knew Swana's and Landham's names, I suppose because the others are solely Philly based, but it's music of the highest standard.

Do I recall that this one got the Larry Kart seal of approval?  

 

Enjoyed the heck out of both of those Swana-Philly albums. Those tenor men, and the the rhythm section, and Swana too of course. Larry Kart

A considerable research project, which I'm not prepared to undertake at the moment.

"Flautista! Herbie Mann Plays Afro-Cuban Jazz" recorded live at New York City's Basin Street East in June 1959.  Verve cd. Herbie Mann flute, bass clarinet, Carlos "Valdes percussion, vibraphonist Johnny Rae, bassist Knobby Totah, and percussionists Santos Miranda and Luis Mangual.

 

That one I wanted to post a long time ago (I love the cover), after I had stumbled upon it diggin up Cal Tjader's Soul Burst, but I still have them lying around without having played them.

Now playing:

Lee Ritenour – Captain Fingers (Epic, 1977)

Gradually coming to the conclusion that I like Lee Ritenour's stuff quite a lot. It's light pop fusion, but it never has the deadly quality of stiff rhythms or silly guitar shredding. Sort of a watered down Bill Cobham sound. Dated enough to be distant and charming. Actually nice. Doubt it appeals to 90% of listeners here.
