Motor City Scene, also released as Stardust, is an album by American saxophonist Pepper Adams and trumpeter Donald Byrd, recorded in 1960 and released on the Bethlehem label as BCP 6056 featuring Byrd and Adams with Kenny Burrell, Tommy Flanagan, Paul Chambers, and Louis Hayes.[1][2] It is not to be confused with the identically titled 1959 Thad Jones album on United Artists Records (UAS 5025) that also featured Tommy Flanagan and Paul Chambers, along with Al Grey, Billy Mitchell, and Elvin Jones.
The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3 stars and stated "Fine solos from the front-liners save this disc, as their formidable powers still show great promise. Two years hence, this band was a top-drawer attraction, but somehow this session doesn't gel to the extent many might have hoped it would".[3] The review by Scott Yanow of Pepper Adams' album Stardust awarded the album 4 stars and stating it was "Well worth searching for". It was also released on CD as In a Soulful Mood by Donald Byrd [4]
