The record
A stacked West Coast summit session, with Nat Adderley's cornet and Harold Land's tenor trading against the twin keyboards of Feldman and a young Joe Zawinul. Herb Ellis and Frank Butler anchor the groove -- a curious, little-documented one-off pairing hard bop heavyweights under an unusual thematic banner.
