The record
A 1955 date that catches Cannonball fresh on the New York scene, already trading crisp, blues-soaked lines with brother Nat while Hank Jones and Kenny Clarke keep things unhurried. BYG's reissue captures the alto man before Miles, full of hard-bop promise and Chambers' walking assurance underneath.
