Recorded in 1962, Hawkins’ quartet featuring Tommy Flanagan (Piano), Major Holley (Bass) and Eddie Locke (Drums) puts forth an easily palatable selection of repertoire, with up-tempo moments like “Go Li’l Liza,” & “Swingin’ Scotch” alongside a trio of ballads including Quincy Jones’ “Quintessence.”
