The record
A budget-label octette date from Crown's early-'60s catalog, likely stocked with session players cutting quick, anonymous sides to ride the modern jazz wave. No personnel on file, but that's part of the appeal -- a mystery slab of period-correct hard bop and cool-toned charts.
Contemporary reception
No period review located yet. The vintage-press pipeline searches DownBeat, Cash Box, and Billboard for this session.
