The record

A one-shot leader date for tenor man Bobby Jones, cut for the Cobblestone label with a heavyweight bench -- Jaki Byard, Richard Davis, Mickey Roker, Charles McPherson -- backing his tenor, soprano, and clarinet turns. Bob Dorough's electric piano and Sue Evans' percussion nudge the session into early-70s territory without losing its post-bop bones.
