The record
Fronting a hefty section of brass and reeds instead of blowing lead, McGhee steps back on this 1966 big band date, Clifford Jordan's tenor a standout voice among the ranks. A lesser-known corner of his discography, worth hearing for the ensemble writing and Hep Records' archival dig alone.
