The record

A late-'50s West Coast date with East Coast blood mixed in, pairing Lighthouse regulars like Conte Candoli and Bob Cooper with visiting hard-boppers Lee Morgan and Benny Golson. The dual rhythm-section rosters -- Wynton Kelly and Dick Shreve trading piano duties, Persip and Levey splitting drums -- give this one a shifting, session-swapped energy across sides.
