The record
A Blue Note ten-inch billed to the Julius Watkins Sextet, and the credits stack the rhythm section high: Oscar Pettiford on bass, Kenny Clarke on drums, George Butcher at the piano, with Perry Lopez's guitar and Frank Foster's tenor. Watkins himself is listed without an instrument, so read the jacket. Rudy Van Gelder engineered, Leonard Feather wrote the notes, Bill Hughes shot and designed the cover. BLP 5053.
