The record

Four sides on a Blue Note ten-inch: Gigi Gryce's alto and Clifford Brown's trumpet out front, Jimmy Gourley's guitar threaded through a rhythm section of Henri Renaud, Pierre Michelot and Jean-Louis Viale. 'Minority' is the one to cue up first. Gil Mellé designed the jacket, Francis Wolff took the photograph.
