"... drips with emotion ... this rare Donaldson blowing session comes highly recommended ..."
- Audiophile Audition
A cadre of young musicians, each who would, in time, evolve into a master, is caught as they begin to shine early on for this fireball set ... a welcome opportunity to savor a steaming, vivid and fascinating session when a band of young lions were clearly on the verge of greatness."
- All About Jazz
This 1958 release marks a period in Lou Donaldson's development prior to a stylistic shift away from bop and toward a stronger rhythm and blues emphasis. Three uptempo tunes here are pure bebop; the remaining number is a medium blues piece, quite characteristic of the hard bop period. The front line on this set includes Donald Byrd and Curtis Fuller with the rhythm section of Sonny Clark, George Joyner and Art Taylor.
