The record
A drummer's date through and through, Persip leading a hard-bop frontline stacked with young talent -- Hubbard and Belgrave trading trumpet lines over a rhythm section anchored by a barely-twenty Ron Carter. Bethlehem caught this crew early, before the sidemen's names would carry the marquee.
