Taken from the same sessions as A First, this collaboration between veteran cornetist Ruby Braff and the relatively young tenor great Scott Hamilton lives up to its potential. With strong assistance from pianist John Bunch, guitarist Chris Flory, bassist Phil Flanigan and drummer Chuck Riggs, Braff and Hamilton are a perfect team on such joyful swing tunes as &A Sailboat in the Moonlight,& &'Deed I Do,& &Jeepers Creepers& and &Sweethearts on Parade.& All eight selections (even the obscure &Milkman's Matinee&) are well wotth hearing, making this a highly recommended set.
