Description
This impassioned quintet session from 1964 weaves elements of post-bop and free jazz into a supremely spirited program of original compositions by Jackie McLean and the young trumpet sensation Charles Tolliver. McLean and Tolliver were joined by pianist Herbie Hancock, bassist Cecil McBee, and drummer Roy Haynes. While the music was classified as the new thing at the time, the searing cry of the blues is ever-present in McLeans brilliant alto saxophone playing. The artwork is one of Reid Miles most memorable cover designs. Blue Note
