THE COUNTRY ISSUE IS OUT NOW!

ROCK • A • RAMA

BUSTER WILLIAMS—Dreams Come True (Buddah)::Much of this is sappy, as you’d expect, but just the weirdness of trying to convert a bass player into a commercially acceptable lead soloist makes the record worth nothing. Also pianist Kenny Barron and trumpeter Eddie Henderson lend jazz authenticity to a few cuts and the best of this sounds like a very low-keyed bop session while the worst sounds like a kind of ersatz disco.
