Joe Locke & David Hazeltine's reunion release "Mutual Admiration society 2" is now in stores. Marc Edelman of Sharp Nine Records managed to get Joe, David, Essiet Essiet (bass) and Billy Drummond (drums) back together in the studio, ten years after their first release. "Mutual Admiration Society 2" comes with more superb writing, arranging, soloing and group feel that made the original album one of the most admired CDs in the Sharp Nine catalogue.
