The theme of "Doxie" by Sonny Rollins is central to both the beginning and end of Phil Talks with Quill, but the conversation takes a different turn the second time around. The qui ntet has made this tune their signature and they expertly improvise and explore its possibilities. The album, released in 1959, features three duets between Phil Woods and Quill, showcasing their dynamic interplay and playful competition on the alto saxophone. The arrangements pay homage to jazz masters such as Rollins, Parker, Getz, and Gillespie, all of whom are familiar territory for these talented musicians. With Epic Stereo-Rama recordings and masterful production by Mike Berniker, this album is a must-listen for any jazz fan. Show more
