The Jake Hanna Quintet Jake Takes Manhattan (Vinyl, Concord Jazz Records, 1977) ***
Genre: Jazz
Places I remember: Little Red Bookstore
Fab, and all the other pimply hyperboles: Them There Eyes (the closest I could find)
Gear costume: Lester Leaps In (not available on Spotify or YouTube)
Active compensatory factors: I took a punt on this one. Jake Hanna is a drummer, and the quintet includes Danny Stiles on trumpet.

In hindsight, not a smart move. It's good, but not great and those trumpet peels can annoy. Not ideal.
There is some nice piano from John Bunch and some great tenor and alto sax flurries from Carmen Leggio.
Where do they all belong? Sometimes a punt works out, sometimes it doesn't. I'm not looking for any more Jake Hanna albums.
