The record
Ahmed Abdul-Malik's bass and Andrew Cyrille's drums give this vibraphone date a springy, unsettled bottom, and Walt Dickerson plays hard and dry against it -- more attack than shimmer -- with Austin Crowe's piano filling the middle. 'The Unknown' and 'Sugar Lump' sit next to 'Autumn In New York' and 'I Can't Get Started.' New Jazz, 1962, recorded by Rudy Van Gelder, mono.
