Herbie Mann: Push Push

The participants here set Manns composition in a great groove. The record is more famous to some for the presence of Duane Allman and there is good reason for praise. For me its another instance that begs the question what if hed lived to play more of this kind of music and explore even further. That being said, the real star of the session is Mann and his interaction with his rhythm section. The way these cats react to the soloists is stunning. It sounds like theyve been playing together for decades. Real pros!
