The Chase Is On is an album by saxophonists Charlie Rouse and Paul Quinichette recorded in 1957 and released on the Bethlehem label.[1] [2]
The editors of AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars, and reviewer Michael G. Nastos stated: "The combination of Rouse and Quinichette was a very satisfactory coupling of two talented and promising post-swing to bop individualists, who played to all of their strengths and differences on this worthy -- and now legendary -- session".[3]
A reviewer for Billboard called the album a "smart, stimulating jazz package," featuring "good all-star rhythm backing." They commented: "Eye-catching cover conveys the idea, and tenor fanciers will plunge."[4]
