Review:
"What a swinging album! Maynard Ferguson played with Shorty Rogers on this tribute album to Richard Rodgers, recorded 1/30, 2/1, 2/4, and 4/3/57. His high note playing, and the total power of the trumpet section, are awesome!!! The tracks "I've Got Five Dollars" and "Mountain Greenery" are worth the purchase price, alone".
