Ephemera (Pepper Adams album)


Ephemera, is an album by baritone saxophonist Pepper Adams which was recorded in London in 1973 and originally released on the Spotlite label.

Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "Adams performs four of his obscure originals, Thad Jones' "Quiet Lady," "Jitterbug Waltz" and a romping version of Bud Powell's classic "Bouncing With Bud." A fine example of the deep-toned baritonist at his best. ".
