I guess you want my opinion. I believe it's excellent. Great quartet playing.

Sorry, yes obtuse request. That's what I was hoping to hear, thanks

Note the endorsement of/by Michael Cuscuna. Quite correct, imo (even if he was doing work for Atlantic around that time). 

Structurally sound, as they say. Quite!!!

After a break to see Steve Swell, Frode Gjerstad, Jon Rune Strom and Paal Nilssen-Love in person, the Burrell fest closes for the night and will open tomorrow with this one.

Which one is that ? I have some of the VSOP quintet. But it has another cover. I think two of them are from Japan.

Good platter which still leaves me wondering how well Thad Jones fits in here ....

Oh yes, than it is the best of all, though it´s hard for me to choose. The "Tempest at Colosseum" is also top and was my favourite until I discovered "Under the Sky".  On the other hand, the studio album from the same time as "Under The Sky" is a lame duck for me. 

By the way: You should also get Sonny Rollins "Under the Sky", it´s incredible !!!!

This was my first Art Tatum album in the 70´s, it had another cover but I like it even more than the Verves. The "Begin the Beguine" is outa sight !

Oh yes wonderful, the rhythm section is tops, the album is very fine, though I alsways found that J.R.Monterose has a bit a strange way of phrasing. I´m no collector, but I think I have another one where he plays with Kenny Dorham.

My fave being  "Tempest at Colosseum" .... and "Five Stars" as dark horse ....
