Alto Madness is a classic

"Richie Cole's crisp, clean sound will knock you back from the opening riffs of "Cole's Nocturne" all the way through to "Moody's Mood". I have owned this record since it was first released in 1977 and I still think it sounds as fresh as the first time I played it. This was also one of vocalist Eddie Jefferson's last recording appearances prior to his untimely death. Cole and Jefferson have some great melodic chemistry going as evidenced on "The Common Touch""
