Excellent work from pleasant sounding jazz combo recorded in Paris 1961. Thielemans plays terrific jazz guitar licks, there is no harmonica but some whistling now and there. Compared to Montgomery, Reinhardt etc. this guy maybe was too laid back to become a star but in many ways his playing is far more listenable than most of others due to an atmosphere between musicians involved that clearly states teamwork instead of competition. This guy most probably knew he had what it takes for a long life professional musical career, he needed not prove anything more than just make sounds that to this day are very enjoyable to most listeners. --- A.
