The record
LeRoi Jones wrote the liner notes, which is reason enough to pull it out of the bin. Williams works a small group -- Nat Jones on piano, Harold Dotson on bass, William Peeples on drums -- through 'Concerto For Cootie', 'Night Train' and 'Some Of These Days'. Moodsville MV 27 from 1962, mastered by Rudy Van Gelder.
