The record

Houston Person on tenor and John Abercrombie on guitar make an unusual pair of voices to set against Johnny Hammond's organ, with Grady Tate behind the kit. Six titles for Prestige in 1968 -- 'Song For My Father,' 'Speak Low' and 'Four Bowls Of Soul' among them -- produced by Cal Lampley, with liner notes by Christopher Peters dated that August.
