Review by Scott Yanow

 debut as a leader found him at the age of 27 already a distinctive and skilled tenor-saxophonist. For this quintet set (reissued on LP in the OJC series),  teams up with the veteran trumpeter , pianist , bassist  and drummer  for four of his originals plus the ballads "Passion Flower" and "What's New." Although none of these  tunes caught on, this was an impressive beginning to a short but productive career and gives one a strong example of the multi-talented  tenor playing.
