Highlights include " Its You or No One, " " You Stepped out of a Dream" & Roachs unaccompanied drum piece " Conversation."

This is an interesting 1959 date with Max Roach leading a piano-less quintet. The airy voicings for the horns, which include the Turrentine brothers (Tommy on trumpet and Stanley, of course, on tenor saxophone) and Julian Priester on trombone, approach a West Coast cool jazz-like texture, the kind of jazz
