An excellent all-around set by Don Lanphere (who doubles on tenor and soprano), this release from the Scottish Hep label features Lanphere in several settings. He performs four numbers, including "There's No You" and "The Preacher," in a quintet with trumpeter Jon Pugh, pianist Marc Seales, bassist Chuck Deardorf and drummer Dean Hodges; he explores "Body and Soul" with the same group (without Pugh); he takes "Laura" as a spontaneous duet with bassist Deardorf, and teams up with Pugh on two other straight-ahead originals in a different quintet with pianist Don Friedman. No matter what the setting, the underrated Don Lanphere is heard throughout in top form. ~ Scott Yanow  http://www.allmusic.com/album/stop-mw0000246725

Personnel: Don Lanphere (soprano saxophone, tenor saxophone); Marc Seales (piano); Chuck Deardorf (acoustic bass, electric bass); Dean Hodges (drums); Jonathan Pugh (trumpet).
