It seems strange and somewhat tragic that this was trumpeter Kenny Dorham's last full album as a leader; he was only 40 at the time and still in his prime. Dorham contributed three of the four selections to the session (Joe Henderson's catchy "Mamacita" also receives its debut), and his very underrated abilities as a writer, trumpeter, and talent scout are very much in evidence. This modern hard bop quintet set with Henderson on tenor, pianist Tommy Flanagan, bassist Richard Davis, and drummer Albert "Tootie" Heath serves as a strong (if premature) ending to Dorham's impressive career as a solo artist.
