The record
A space-race concept set from the quartet's classic lineup, following the Time Out breakthrough with more of the same restless meter-bending -- Desmond's cool alto floating over Morello's odd-footed pulse. Not as canonical as its predecessor, but a solid document of the group's early-'60s stride.
