The Buck Stops Here is an album by saxophonist Buck Hill which was recorded in 1990 and released on the Muse label.[1] [2] [3] [4]

Reception

The AllMusic review by Les Line stated "he shares the solo spotlight with the rarely recorded Johnny Coles, who seldom plays a superfluous note on his warm-voiced flugelhorn. This is a nicely balanced set of pretty ballads and jaunty originals".
