A jazz ensemble for sophisticated adults.
The charm of this quartet shines through, combining technique and playfulness.
This album is by the jazz quartet LA4, consisting of guitarist Laurindo Almeida, saxophonist Bud Shank, bassist Ray Brown, and drummer Shelly Manne. Starting with the title track "Just Friends," the quartet plays a wide range of styles, from swing to Latin. The highly skilled playing techniques and harmonious interplay of each member create an urban, sophisticated atmosphere.
