This is an unusual set by pianist Mal Waldron. He utilizes a sextet with trumpeter Art Farmer, flutist Eric Dixon, cellist Calo Scott, bassist Julian Euell & drummer Elvin Jones on three of his picturesque originals & his wife Elaine Waldron contributes vocals to the wordless " Portrait of a Young Mother" & Harold Arlens " For Every Man Theres a Woman." The music is not essential but holds ones interest throughout the straight CD reissue of the original LP. Scott Yanow.
