Never heard this 1958 album before for some damn reason. It is excellent, despite some rather muffled sound even by Riverside standards (engineer was Aaron Nathanson [who he?] at Metropolitan Sound [where dat?]  -- a treble boost probably would help. Four tracks with Kelly, Kenny Burrell, Paul Chambers, and Philly Joe. four tracks minus Philly Joe. Some very serious playing here by all hands, maybe the most intense focused Burrell I've ever heard, clearly stimulated by a pianist who was born to accompany him.

Wynton Kelly sounds good on almost everything.  He's one of those artists whose mere presence will often convince me to make a purchase.

As I noted recently on another thread, this recent release is highly recommended:
