The record
A quartet date caught live, with the "Moanin'" and "This Here" composer stretching out beyond his hard-bop hits alongside Sonny Red's blues-soaked alto and the rock-solid Sam Jones/Mickey Roker rhythm team. Chiaroscuro's release preserves a loose, club-party energy rarely found on Timmons' studio dates.
