Bill Stewart/Joe Lovano/M. Cohen/D. Holland
The main reason to obtain Think Before You Think is the prominently featured tenor sax of Joe Lovano, who was a year away from recording for Blue Note when the acoustic post-bop/hard bop session was done in 1989. This isn't to take anything away from leader Bill Stewart -- a competent, swinging drummer -- or his other sidemen on the album: ...
