Enjoyable outing from a pre-Jazztet Art Farmer. Hank Mobley appears on tenor on all but two tracks (the ballad 'Reminiscing' and muted vamp 'By Myself') and Farmer's trumpet is backed by the always terrific Kenny Drew on piano, be-bop mainstay Addison Farmer on bass, and an early appearance from Elvin Jones on drums; the latter should need no introduction. The mood here is light, airy and has all of the carefree hustle and bustle the title suggests. Even the more sombre numbers have the comfort in them of a breezy weekend afternoon.
