Comments

Equivalent release: EmArcy SR-80018 (stereo).

Later reissued as Mercury MG-20531 (mono) and Mercury SR-60208 (stereo).

Inside The Groove

Another nice driving hard-bop session by Cannonball and his pals.

Personal Impression (and brief notes)

Cannonball Adderley's EmArcy/Mercury era - unlike the famous Riverside era, his early EmArcy sessions seems to be a bit underrated. This 1958 session, however, is another fine example of how Cannonball's play based on Hard-Bop idiom sounded well. These are not the Cannonball's best performances indeed, but still a refreshing blowing session from this period.

By the way, why B-3 is credited as “written by J. Adderley” on the back cover - huh? execuse me sir? (grin)

Strictly Personal Rating (to what extent I could enjoy this album)

8 out of 10
