The record

A late-'65 one-off pulling together sidemen from the Ellington, Gillespie, and Coltrane orbits, with two bassists and two pianists trading roles across the session. Farmer's flugelhorn and Moody's flute give the date its soft-edged, conversational feel -- a quietly loaded lineup for a label better known for pop and soul.
