In honor of his birthday today, though actually I pulled it out for a fresh listen a few days ago. And Jackie McLean in the bargain:

Peak Donald Byrd on that record too,

Okay, goosing the throttle a bit more. Paula Morelenbaum! One of the most soothing voices on the planet for me. (Helen Folesade Adu need not worry, she's still top of the ladder!)

Yes! It’s really been a joy listening to this again this morning. Great sound too on the JRVG edition, purchased many years ago from Son-of-a-Weizen, who once frequented these parts on a near-daily basis.

FWIW, Jackie McLean's "New Soil," which was recorded three months earlier, is in a similar bag. The three principals are the same -- McLean, Byrd, Davis -- with different bass and drums.I always think of these records as a pair.

Thanks for the reminder—I’ll pull that one out now, actually. McLean is one of my favorite saxophonists, a real gateway artist when I first started listening intensely to a lot of jazz in the early/mid-1990s. (That 1964-66 Blue Note set was one of the first Mosaics I ever bought, along with the Andrew Hill.) Might be a good time to go on a Jackie binge in general.

Wondering if the three tunes with Blue Mitchell are the only ones he recorded with Ibrahim?
