The record
A twin-tenor-plus-alto frontline gives this early-'60s date a rich, horn-heavy density, with Chris Anderson's harmonically slippery piano and Bill Lee's bass anchoring the group. Strozier and Coleman, both schooled in the same Memphis lineage, trade lines with a hard-bop urgency this rare Jazz Workshop pressing preserves.
