Taking Care of Business (Oliver Nelson album)


Taking Care of Business is the second album by saxophonist Oliver Nelson recorded in 1960 and released on the New Jazz label.

Reception

The Allmusic site awarded the album 4½ stars stating "Oliver Nelson would gain his greatest fame later in his short life as an arranger/composer but this superior session puts the emphasis on his distinctive tenor and alto playing... Nelson remains a vastly underrated saxophonist and all six performances on this recommended CD reissue are excellent".
