Last reissued as a Pausa LP simply titled Jimmy Giuffre, this album has Giuffre's first recordings as a leader, three sessions that resulted in ten selections. Switching between tenor, clarinet and baritone, Giuffre is heard in a quartet and quintet with trumpeter Jack Sheldon and with Sheldon in a pianoless septet also including Shorty Rogers on flugelhorn, altoist Bud Shank and valve trombonist Bob Enevoldsen. The leader wrote eight of the ten songs (including a remake of his biggest hit "Four Brothers"), several of which show off his growing interest in both folk and classical musics. Fine performances, but this album will be difficult to find. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
