Benny Golson Quartet, also released as Up, Jumped, Spring, is an album by saxophonist/composer Benny Golson that was recorded in 1990 and originally released by the LRC Ltd. label.
Reception
The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow said " the music is excellent ... Golson is heard throughout in top form, stretching himself on Freddie Hubbard's "Up Jumped Spring" (listed as an original called "Up, Jump, Spring!"), Kenny Barron's "Voyage" and his own "Stable Mates." On the latter, Golson plays an effective and intense duet with drummer Reedus. 61 at the time, Benny Golson is heard here at the peak of his powers".
