1960 studio album by Al Cohn & Zoot Sims
You 'n' Me is a 1960 album by the Zoot Sims and Al Cohn quintet.[ 1]
Scott Yanow on Allmusic.com gave the album three stars out of five. Yanow commented on the "Improvisation for Unaccompanied Saxophones", describing it as "...a short but effective two-tenor workout that, through a clever arrangement by Cohn, gives one the impression that both saxophonists are using circular breathing." Yanow also said of the album that "...the co-leaders stick to their main instruments and enjoy swinging..."[ 1]
