Pianist {|Mike Wofford|} and flautist {|Holly Hofmann|} make a good team, as after they'd played together for a while, they became husband and wife, too. From this quintet session, they invited trumpeter {|Terell Stafford|} (who made a name for himself as a part of {|Bobby Watson|}'s {|Horizon|} as well as recording as a leader), bassist {|Rob Thorson|}, and drummer {|Richard Sellers|}. The blend of flute and trumpet creates a warm harmony throughout much of the album, which is a compelling mix of strong originals and overlooked gems. {|Wofford|}'s loping The Dipper is a tribute to {|Horace Silver|}, though it doesn't mimic his compositions. He integrates voicings similar to the jazz master's into his own framework. {|Hofmann|}'s rambunctious post-bop vehicle M-Line sets the quintet afire, with sizzling solos by the composer and {|Stafford|}, followed by {|Wofford|}'s intense workout. {|Bobby Watson|}'s infectious, Latin-flavored Karita will be familiar to the alto saxophonist's fans, as he has recorded it several times and {|Stafford|} has likely played it on gigs with him. {|Stafford|}'s fiery solo is exuberant without going overboard, followed by {|Hofmann|}'s expressive, sublime solo. {|Wofford|}'s bluesy playing is the highlight of {|Jimmy Forrest|}'s Soul Street, as {|Thorson|} and {|Sellers|} lay down a solid foundation underneath him. {|Dick Twardzik|} is nearly forgotten due to his early death from a drug overdose in the '50s, but The Girl from Greenland is evidence of his promise as a composer. {|Wofford|}'s engaging trio interpretation pays tribute to the little-recorded pianist. {|Turn Signal|} is easily one of the best recordings by {|Mike Wofford|} and {|Holly Hofmann|}. ~ Ken Dryden Music>Music>Jazz>Jazz>Jazz, City Hall Core >3<
