The record
Elvin Jones on an Eddie Gale record is the credit that stops you, and he splits the drum work with John Robinson while Henry Pearson and Judah Samuel double the basses. Jimmy Lyons plays alto, Russell Lyle and Roland Alexander both take flutes, and a vocal group sings through music Gale composed, arranged and conducted. Blue Note BST 84320, 1969.
