How did Desmond manage to sound simultaneously so smooth and so sophisticated? Desmond draws you in to his web and paralyzes you with smoothness, but there is nothing vanilla or wallpaper about him. Most of the best songs here, including the outstanding lead off track, "Jeruvian," were composed by tenor saxaphonist Dave Van Kriedt. Van Kriedt's compositions are perfect for Desmond's style, relaxed, deceptivly complicated, and nearly as fresh as the day they were recorded. Desmond's "Jazzabelle" is also excellent. Some of the vocal tracks, including "Will I Know," and "Garden in the Rain" sound a bit dated however. While there are great jazz albums to be had from the every decade, the last 5 or 6 years of the 1950's produced more classic jazz, more music that stands the test of time, than any other period. Is there really any doubt about this? The Desmond bands made elegance look easy.
