Five by Five

"Organist Bobby Forrester, best known for his long stint with singer Ruth Brown, has been called upon to play blues, ballads, R&B, and jazz standards. He has always handled the varied material with aplomb. Five by Five is a thoroughly enjoyable jaunt throuh familiar territory, Tenorist Jerry Weldon's fiery, eat-up-the-changes approach recalls mid to late-'50's vintage Johnny Griffen at times, though he softens and gets an appropraitely breathy tone on the ballad 'For All We Know'." - David Kuner, Cadence
