The record
Chick Corea sits fresh in the band here, Richard Davis and the two-drummer pairing of Elvin Jones and Mel Lewis stirring up a rhythm section built for the era's harder edges, Pepper Adams' baritone anchoring the bottom. Solid State catches bebop's elder statesman holding his own against younger currents.
