1982 studio album by Warne Marsh Quartet
Star Highs , is an album by saxophonist Warne Marsh which was recorded in 1982 and released on the Dutch Criss Cross Jazz label.[ 1] [ 2] [ 3]
Reception
The Allmusic review states "Tenor saxophonist Warne Marsh and pianist Hank Jones had not performed together before they met up in the studio ... plenty of sparks fly between the two lead soloists. Marsh plays with more fire than one would expect from the cool-toned tenor; the material is fresher than usual, and the album can be easily recommended to straight-ahead jazz collectors".[ 5]
