Farmer, Art
On The Road
Rare & Collectible Vinyl Records

1990 Reissue of Contemporary S 7636 Recorded In 1976. Still In Shrink With OJC Hype Sticker. Features Art Pepper, Hampton Hawes, Ray Brown, Steve Ellington And Shelly Manne. "On The Road Features A Logical But Only One-time Collaboration Between Flügelhornist Art Farmer And Altoist Art Pepper. With Pianist Hampton Hawes, Bassist Ray Brown, And Either Steve Ellington Or Shelly Manne On Drums Completing The Quintet, The Five Standards And Hawes' Original "Downwind" Were Certainly In Good Hands. A Special Highlight Is A Duet Version Of "My Funny Valentine," Featuring Farmer And Hawes. Everyone Plays Up To Par On This Spirited Straight-Ahead Set." AMG Review By Scott Yanow.
