Description
Gibbs and Caine blend together well, never getting in each other's way while Koslo and Gibbs are excellent in support
The most unusual aspect to this Terry Gibbs quartet date is that seven of the nine selections are originals by the vibraphonist-leader. Of these, the most memorable are 'Play That Song,' 'Penthouse Groove,' the strong melody of 'Sweet Young Song Of Love' and the medium-tempo blues 'The Fat Man' which inspires Terry Gibbs' most exciting playing. Also in the 'cooking' category are the quartet's renditions of Artie Shaw's 'Moon Ray' and 'Limehouse Blues.' It does seem a bit odd how the theme of 'The Beautiful People' is very similar to 'What's New' but that is the only real fault to this swinging set. Gibbs and Caine blend together well while never getting in each other's way while bassist Boris Koslo and drummer Gerry Gibbs are excellent in support.
