A historic recording that captures the dynamics of hard bop
An overwhelming groove created by the powerful rhythm section of Elvin Jones and Richard Davis.
Though it's a drums-and-bass arrangement, this surprisingly rich album explores rhythmic possibilities to the fullest. Jones's polyrhythmic drumming and Davis' eloquent bass lines intertwine to create the essential driving force of jazz. This is a remarkable album in both technique and musicality.
