★モダン・ジャズ・ドラムの開祖が、ヨーロッパの若手アレンジャーとコンビを組んだチャーリー・クリスチャン、セロニアス・モンク、ディジー・ガレスピーらと共にビ・バップの誕生に携わり、1950年代初頭にはモダン・ジャズ・カルテット（MJQ）の初代ドラマーも務めたケニー・クラーク。1956年にはフランスのパリに移住し、ヨーロッパ・ジャズのレベルアップにも大きく貢献しました。

★このCDはアンドレ・オデール、クリスチャン・シュヴァリエ、ピエール・ミシュロ、フランシー・ボラーン（のちに双頭ビッグ・バンドを組む）といったヨーロッパ・モダン・ジャズきっての気鋭たちのアレンジに取り組んだ一作。ワン＆オンリーのドラム演奏と、整然としたアンサンブルの融合に時を忘れます。　(jazzyellより)
