Our Take

AL COHN / ZOOT SIMS Two Funky People - 1952-1961

When it comes to funky duos, Al Cohn and Zoot Sims are the OGs. This compilation album is a treasure trove of smooth saxophone solos and jazzy grooves that will have you tapping your feet in no time.

From the swinging opener "Two Funky People" to the laid-back vibes of "Why Not?" these two legends prove that they can still bring the funk even after all these years. The chemistry between Cohn and Sims is undeniable, with each track showcasing their impeccable timing and improvisational skills.

But it's not just about the instrumental prowess - the album also features some killer vocals from guest artists like Sarah Vaughan and Frank Sinatra. Their smooth crooning adds an extra layer of sophistication to an already stellar collection of tunes.

Overall, Two Funky People is a must-have for any jazz aficionado looking to add some classic cool to their collection. So grab a glass of bourbon, dim the lights, and let Al Cohn and Zoot Sims take you on a funky journey that you won't soon forget. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
