Description: Personnel: Tommy Turrentine (tp), Curtis Fuller (tb), Yusef Lateef (ts), Wynton Kelly (p), Paul Chambers (b), Lex Humphries (d) "Paul Chambers was one of the top bassists of the 1955-65 period, so it is somewhat surprising to realize that this out-of-print Vee Jay LP was his final one as a leader. Actually tenor saxophonist Yusef Lateef, who contributed all five selections, is the most prominent musician on the album although trumpeter Tommy Turrentine, trombonist Curtis Fuller, pianist Wynton Kelly, drummer Lex Humprhies and Chambers are all strong assets. The music is straightahead without being overly predictable, falling into the hard bop idiom and containing many fine moments." Scott Yanow (All Music Guide) TRACKLIST: 01.
