Straight Up and Down is a tidy blend of high-flying exuberance and smooth delivery (note the trumpet's sassy quote of Sweet Georgia Brown and the baritone sax's sly paraphrase of Once I Had a Secret Love).

Naked and drugged or drunken men and women have been seen running through the halls at night, and orgies and nude parties have occurred." The accusations, supposedly based on secret reports from an unidentified informant, probably exaggerated the situation at Franconia.
