Drummer Elvin Jones first full-length album as a leader (reissued on CD in the
OJC series) is different than one would expect when it is taken into
consideration that he was a member of the fiery John Coltrane Quartet at the
time. This sextet session, which also includes his brothers Thad and Hank on
cornet and piano in addition to flutist Frank Wess, Frank Foster on tenor, and
bassist Art Davis, is straight-ahead with a strong Count Basie feel. Jones is
still recognizable on the fairly obscure material (only You Are Too Beautiful
qualifies as a standard) and shows that he can cook in the fairly conventional
setting. All of the musicians are in fine form, and two selections feature the
rhythm section as a trio.~ Scott Yanow
