The influence of Charlie Parker can be heard in virtually every modern jazz musician, particularly players of the alto saxophone. Although considered to be one of "Bird's children," Lou Donaldson absorbed and synthesized other pre-Parker influences, such as Johnny Hodges and Benny Carter. This recording marks a period in his development prior to a stylistic shift away from bop and toward a stronger rhythm and blues emphasis. Three up-tempo tunes are pure bebop; the remaining number is a medium blues in B flat, quite characteristic of the hard bop period. The front line on this set includes Donald Byrd and Curtis Fuller; the rhythm section is Sonny Clark, George Joyner, and Art Taylor.

On May-07-12 at 03:48:04 PDT, seller added the following information:

 Across bottom center of jacket's rear cover reads "For Complete Catalog Write to BLUE NOTE RECORDS, 47 West 63rd ST., New York 23"


ALSO NOTE:

RECORD HAS NOW BEEN PLAY-GRADED TO "EXCELLENT CONDITION"

VINYL IS NEARLY SILENT WHILE MY  ORTOFON WAS IN THE LEAD IN GROOVE.

CLEAR, CRISP SOUND COMES FROM MY BOSE 901 series V

DETAIL OF THE CYMBALS AND BRUSHES ARE AMAZING.

AT TIME OF REVISION, SIDE 1 HAS LITERALLY 2 POPS IN THE ENTIRE PLAYING SIDE!!

AMAZING!!!!
