Additional information
The concert, which was billed as an open recording session with audience, was a shambles, with copyists seated on stage working feverishly even as the performance was going on. The record is pretty much a disaster as well, even with players such as Snooky Young, Britt Woodman, Charles McPherson, Eric Dolphy, Lee Konitz and Dannie Richmond along for the ride. No one is really quite sure of the exact personnel, the titles are all wrong, and the recording quality leaves something to be desired. This one is for completists only. ~ Stuart Kremsky
