A tremendous album! This was a Jazz AOTW a little over a year ago:

This is probably my favorite all time album , OF ANY GENRE. It is simply brilliant. The band is pulsating. The tunes are ALL haunting and memorable. And Milton is fantastic. For me , it is A&M's best release EVER.

Surprisingly I don't own this one yet, but I'll keep an eye out for it. Great composer and lyricist--there are some good ones on this album I can see!

SP 4612, Chuck Mangione's MAIN SQUEEZE, also has a recent thread under A&M Jazz AOTWs.
I will post 4613 next.
