The all-star lineup (tenor-saxophonist
Frank Lowe, trumpeter
Don Cherry, trombonnist
Grachan Moncur III, pianist
Geri Allen, bassist
Charnette Moffett and drummer
Charles Moffett) practically guarantees that this music will be worth hearing. Although a touch more conservative than one might expect (more of an open-minded straightahead set than music emphasizing sound explorations), all six group originals are of interest including
Lowe's unaccompanied performance on
Butch Morris's "I'll Whistle Your Name" and
Moncur's whimsical "You Dig."
