"Round Midnight" is a testament to the enduring appeal of swing, of that steady, uplifting, lilting, mostly 4/4 feel that imbues the jazz mainstream with exhilarating momentum. All but the ballad title tune are swingers here, ranging from barnburner to elevated heartbeat tempo and the two tenors negotiate the swing with élan and gusto. They are also very convivial throughout, trading phrases and leads, weaving in solo tandem and expanding and complementing each otter's lines, phrases and solo turns.
