From the liner: The following day, our own Herbie Hancock, spurred on by Jimmy Woode, Sam Woodyard and Quintin Jackson, who graciously consented to a "jam session" in Younker Lounge.......

It's a great record. One I've dreamed of finding for years. But I'm still quite weirded out that this is being reissued when so much else hasn't been.

Speaking about Discos Fuentes also Orquesta La Terrifica "Hinca La Yegua" (again from 1981) should get a mention ....

Remember buying that LP around 1982. There was a real feel that modern jazz was on the up again around that time, after a while in the doldrums, with that LP something of a marker for the upsurge.

I love the whiplash between the delicate post bop on side one and the track "Jug's Not Dead" that opens the Freemans' set. But its also immediately obvious which of the two is going to be the deeper.

I hadn't noticed that everyone on the sleeve has a moustache. Branford's looks like it took exactly 14 3/4 years to grow.

I think the collection of 8 LPs I have was Japanese Verve, I´m not sure. It´s interesting that they are not chronological, I think the first one is some a bit too bombastic big band stuff. That "Temptation" sounds a bit too much like an old movie score. 
Some of them are very fine: Especially the one which has "Chi Chi" on it, that is a good session where Granz didn´t interfere with the music or the personnel, it´s vintage Charlie Parker quartet with top players. 
 

I have not spinned it for decades, I still prefer the Savoy and Dial recordings....., and the early 50´s Birdland recordings....
