2008 U.S. CD reissue.
By the time of their fifth record, the Red Rodney-Ira Sullivan Quintet also included pianist Garry Dial, bassist Jay Anderson and drummer Steve Bagby, and it was a perfect vehicle for the co-leaders. Rodney (heard here mostly on flugelhorn) was challenged by the advanced material (four of the six numbers are Dial originals), and underground legend Sullivan received more exposure than he had ever had in his career. On this album, Sullivan (heard on soprano, alto flute and flugelhorn) inspired Rodney to some of his finest playing.
