"There were a lot of hurricanes in the fifties. Hard blowing, stomping, reed biting, bar walking tenormen who were the pointmen of a new music sensibility. There were some alto players and a few brave souls on baritone sax, but few would deny that the tenor sax solo was a integral part of most rhythm and blues recordings between the end of World War II and the early sixties. Once you complete listening to this album, I think you'll agree you haven't had a more satisfying R'n'B ride in a long time."
