jazzbo Posted March 2 Report Posted March 2 (edited) 3 minutes ago, Holy Ghost said: Tubby and Kirk? I'm curious, impressions? It's very good. Tubby plays tenor, flute and vibes, Kirk does his thing and there is a really nice piece where both Tub and Kirk play flute. The piano trio backing them is just right--letting the stars shine, and then swinging nicely in their own segments. PS: I was remembering wrongly about the Columbia cd, that is another session. I also have this in the Kirk Mercury box, but it doesn't sound this good. Edited March 2 by jazzbo Quote

I also have this in the Kirk Mercury box, but it doesn't sound this good. I guess, I should've read the "and many more!" portion on the back of the box, lols. Dueling flutes make sense. I just bought the Kirk boxset last year, and never realized I have this session. I have to sort through it, as the jewel cases nor booklet make it an easy find. Quote

Yeah, the Columbia is confusing, which I have, but I think (it's packed in a box) it's an Epic titled labeled "Tubbs" if memory serves me right. Quote
