The Pepper-Knepper Quintet is an album led by baritone saxophonist Pepper Adams and trombonist Jimmy Knepper which was recorded in 1958 and originally released on the MetroJazz label.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "The blend between baritone and trombone is quite effective, the musicians all take consistently excellent solos and the music is state-of-the-art 1958 modern mainstream jazz". The Penguin Guide to Jazz described the pairing as producing "a similar blend to that on Cool Sound, but with more expressive resonance and mobility".
