This is a fun set of straightahead jazz. The colorful frontline (trombonist J.J. Johnson, flugelhornist Clark Terry, and Ernie Watts on tenor and alto) obviously enjoyed playing the blues-oriented repertoire and the solos are consistently rewarding. Nothing all that innovative occurs but the results are pleasing. ~ Scott Yanow  http://www.allmusic.com/album/concepts-in-blue-mw0000615288
