3.9 excellentErwann S. EMERITUS | April 23rd 21

Damn that drums solo on "Sakeena's Vision". Blakey sounds mad good, but in fact everybody sounds mad good, each musician getting his own solo and nailing it. The compositions aren't always matching the musicianship though - put very vulgarly, it's hard bop. Great hard bop, for real, with both improvisation and energy leading the charge.
