This could well have been an immediately post ALS Coltrane album, and in my book that is a significant compliment. The behemoth opening track is pretty bonkers and immediately engaging. Tyner and Henderson shine in turn much like Coltrane and Tyner did on the classic quartet albums, but the surprise here comes from the wild drumming from Jack DeJohnette, which is surprisingly prominent and at times outright aggressive, not to mention fantastically technical of course, for an album recorded in 1966 (but released 2024). The second track is a nice, long wine jazz balad, that I am not enamored with but offers well deserved respite after 1. The album is of high quality but meanders for a bit too long. A concentrated version of it would easily reach 4.5 territory. Certainly the first track does. Bit of a shame to finish on a relatively tepid track however. 4.05
