5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Aug-23-2008; Still fine wine; I originally purchased this album in 1964. It was one of my favorites then and it still is.

5/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jun-03-2008; Joe Henderson's tenor Solo on the Title track will haunt you; One of the most beautiful Jazz albums one is ever likely to own.

2/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Feb-09-2007; Great music, terrible remastering; This is definitely a jazz classic, and with the advertised "24-bit remastering", not to mention that it is part of Blue Note's Rudy van Gelder series, I was ready for a sonic treat. However, it was obviously mastered too loud. Looking...; read full review | report as inappropriate
