Tenor saxophonist
Joe Henderson's debut as a leader is a particularly strong and historic effort. With major contributions made by trumpeter
Kenny Dorham, pianist
McCoy Tyner, bassist
Butch Warren, and drummer
Pete La Roca,
Henderson (who already had a strikingly original sound and a viable inside/outside style) performs six generally memorable compositions on this CD reissue. Highlights include the original versions of
Dorham's "Blue Bossa" and
Henderson's "Recorda Me." It's highly recommended. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
