The record

Backed by Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones -- names more at home in hard bop rhythm sections -- the tenor saxophonist stretches out in long, patient phrases that never rush toward resolution. Recorded for Atlantic in December 1957, it's a study in unhurried logic set against sturdier company.
