Produced by Lester Koenig for Contemporary Records, this session divides its tracks between two formidable rhythm sections featuring Paul Chambers, Philly Joe Jones, Sam Jones, and Louis Hayes. The album stands as a primary showcase of Newborn's virtuosic, two-handed parallel octave playing in a strict hard bop context.
