Review by Scott Yanow
Drummer Chico Hamilton introduced many top young players during his years as a bandleader, but few probably realize that Larry Coryell made his recording debut with Chico a year before joining Gary Burton's quartet. The Dealer marks Coryell's initial appearance on record, and at times he sounded oddly like Chuck Berry (especially on "The Dealer"). Also heard on this set are altoist Arnie Lawrence, bassist Richard Davis, organist Ernie Hayes (on two numbers), and, on his spirited boogaloo "For Mods Only," Archie Shepp making a rare appearance on piano. Most of the performances still sound surprisingly fresh, especially the explorative "A Trip," making this an underrated but worthy release.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
El baterista Chico Hamilton introdujo a muchos jóvenes músicos durante sus años como líder de banda, pero probablemente pocos saben que Larry Coryell hizo su debut discográfico con Chico un año antes de unirse al cuarteto de Gary Burton. The Dealer marca la aparición inicial de Coryell en disco, y a veces sonaba extrañamente como Chuck Berry (especialmente en "The Dealer"). También se escucha en este disco al contralto Arnie Lawrence, al bajista Richard Davis, al organista Ernie Hayes (en dos números) y, en su animado boogaloo "For Mods Only", Archie Shepp hace una rara aparición al piano. La mayoría de las interpretaciones aún suenan sorprendentemente frescas, especialmente la explorativa "A Trip", haciendo de éste un lanzamiento infravalorado pero digno.
