This is not to take anything away from his leader, Henderson, who also stars. But it seems to me that with out Dorham's sharp trumpet mus ings. his session might have been just so-so. . . Henderson plays with gusto, and Hill plays an interest ing piano, laying down some parti cularly solid lines on the interpre tative tune, "Pedro Time." and Khan and Laßoca offer solid back ing. But when all these are con sidered. Kenny's work still stands above the rest. . . No offense to Joe ...
