soulpope Posted August 10, 2018 Report Posted August 10, 2018 Earlier today .... : Didn`t get overly moved by this release when acquiring it many years ago .... but things changed .... the interplay of all three musicians is amazing and Max Roach - although a driving force throughout - never crosses theline to overpowering .... btw what a great bassplayer Art Davis was ....re-bought thia hesitantely as japanese SHM-CD release and now very glad I did so ....

I haven't listened as closely to Barron's earlier stuff on Savoy. The Fresh Sounds compilation is on my to-get list. Quote

Art Davis was an excellent bassist. If you haven't heard it, check out his A Time Remembered, which has Herbie Hancock, Ravi Coltrane and Marvin 'Smitty' Smith. It says a lot about Davis that Herbie would do a sideman date at a time where he didn't record often in that capacity.

From recollection, last time I saw him was with Louis Belson around 1980. Quote
