The record
A drummer-led date from the West Coast Pacific Jazz stable, notable for catching a young Bobby Hutcherson on vibes before his Blue Note breakthrough. Leroy Vinnegar's walking bass anchors a sextet frontline of trombone, tenor, and vibes that leans soulful and gospel-tinged, true to its title.
