The record
A stripped-down guitar/bass/drums trio led from behind the kit, with Jefferson doubling on flute -- an unusual, spare instrumentation for a mid-'60s date. Cut for the small Sam Records imprint, it's a lesser-known corner of drummer Ron Jefferson's discography worth a spin for its loose, chamber-jazz intimacy.
