Album Notes & Community Reviews
Backed by an elite ensemble featuring Melvin Sparks on guitar and Charles Earland on organ, the alto saxophonist dives deep into infectious, rhythmically insistent grooves. The session expertly balances technically demanding bebop sensibilities with undeniable, dance-floor-oriented rhythm and blues aesthetics.
