Charlie Rouse is amazing on this CD. After hearing the first ten seconds of the first song you will be convinced. He had an incredibly mellow tone and a style that he never got full credit for. This is really a great jazz CD; I will have to echo the sentiment of the other reviewer who said this is a good one to put on after a hard day. This is one of the most relaxing jazz CD's I can think of. The title "Unsung Hero" definitely applies to Charlie Rouse. The proof is that every person I have played this disc for wants to know who it is and where they can find it.
