Album Notes & Community Reviews
Continuing the documentation of a legendary, fiercely competitive 1965 club engagement in Brooklyn, this volume highlights an intense 'trumpet battle' between the leader and Lee Morgan. The expanded ensemble, featuring a young James Spaulding on alto saxophone, pushes hard bop structures to their absolute physical limits with blistering, extended improvisations. The raucous, aggressively supportive audience adds immensely to the raw, gladiatorial atmosphere of the session.
