Album Notes & Community Reviews

Making his debut as a primary leader, the immensely talented cornetist steps out alongside his more famous alto-playing brother, Cannonball Adderley. The highly energetic, blues-drenched session perfectly bridges the gap between sophisticated bebop vocabulary and the driving, soulful grooves of the emerging hard bop movement.
