The Bud Shank Sextet found here differs from most in that it is pianoless. The pianoless concept is not foreign to Shank's varied experiences of course and it has historical roots dating back to the Gerry Mulligan Quartet of 52-53.
The book leans significantly on John Clayton's formidably creative writing with other arrangements by Bill Perkins and Bud Shank himself. Baritone man Jack Nimitz says succinctly "Everything is so different, every tune has it's own flavours - a different kind of album with no West Coast sigma."
Recorded in Hollywood CA in 1983.
Bud Shank, Bill Perkins, Jack Nimitz, John Clayton, Sherman Ferguson
