    All Music Guide Review

    Jack Sheldon is probably better known for his trumpet playing on other musicians' record dates, but this 1986 studio date more than proves he is a capable leader. With fellow veterans Barry Harris on piano, alto saxophonist Jerry Dodgion, bassist Rufus Reid, and drummer Ben Riley, Sheldon is in top form. Also known for his humorous vocals, he sticks exclusively to trumpet on this occasion, delivering a lyrical solo in "Angel Eyes" and trading licks with Dodgion in a brisk rendition of "The Chase." Fluegelhornist Don Sickler (who did most of the arrangements for the date) sits in during "Along Came Betty." Sheldon also contributed the original ballad "Wait and See," an emotional work that connects with the listener without the need of a lyric. Recommended. ~ Ken Dryden, All Music Guide
