Album Review
How do you improve upon an already classic recording? By adding alternate takes and a CD-ROM program to the original issue. The newly added alternate takes of "Blue Train" (whose piano solo was lifted and spliced into the familiar master take) and "Lazy Bird" are welcome discoveries. The numerous photographs from the session and excerpts of a July 1995 interview with trombonist Curtis Fuller (the only surviving musician from this historic recording session) make this new enhanced CD well worth acquiring, even if you have the earlier CD. Audio interview excerpts from interviews with Kenny Burrell, Tommy Flanagan, Johnny Griffin, Roy Haynes, Archie Shepp, and others are also included. ~ Ken Dryden, All Music Guide
