Probably the first record I remember putting on repeat. Well, asking my parents to put on repeat... I was 4 or 5 at the time.
Bought a gold label copy for 4 bucks at a DFW record show based on something I'd read about it. Hearing it and falling in love with became the thing that decisively separated my musical tastes from my siblings', particualrly my older brother: child #1, so he typically controlled the radio and TV.
I'd been "investigating" jazz up until the point I auditioned this. (It must have been a used CD I came across.) I knew Joe Henderson from Tyner's THE REAL MCCOY and Richard Davis from OUT TO LUNCH. Hill I knew nothing about, not Haynes really. This is when I became obsessed with Blue Note and following all the threads between leaders, sidemen, etc. Which obsession soon spilled over to the other great independent labels of that era (Prestige, Riverside, Contemporary).
