I really dig 50s Dexter! Such a pity he was "unavailable" to record more at that time.

I have a friend who is a very very occasional jazz fan, concentrating more on 'acid jazz' than anything. For some reason this crossed his path and he is obsessed with it.

I've grown a bit 'over' the current young London scene this year, and had avoided this record until now, but I do think it's excellent; easily better than Your Queen Is A Reptile, which I liked too at the time.

Haven't listened to this in YEARS, but it holds up pretty well. What I don't remember is how hot Alphonso Johnson is on this. I thought it was Stanley Clarke at first.

In line with a considerable number of Alphonso Johnson sideman appearances in the 2nd half of the 70's ....

Over on the Hoffman forums, they're singing the praises of this date, with a few going on especially about audio quality on the LP version.
