Review
by Scott Yanow
Recorded five days before Julian "Cannonball" Adderley's death, the title cut of this album was retitled and dedicated to the late altoist. The powerful baritonist Pepper Adams is well showcased with a quartet comprised of pianist Walter Norris, bassist George Mraz and drummer Makaya Ntshoko on three of his originals, one by Norris and two ("Three And One" and "'Tis") by Thad Jones. Adams is in typically excellent form, playing intense solos that push but stay within the boundaries of hard bop.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
Grabado cinco días antes de la muerte de Julian "Cannonball" Adderley, el corte que da título a este álbum fue retitulado y dedicado al fallecido contralto. El poderoso baritonista Pepper Adams se luce con un cuarteto compuesto por el pianista Walter Norris, el bajista George Mraz y el batería Makaya Ntshoko en tres de sus originales, una de Norris y dos ("Three And One" y "'Tis") de Thad Jones. Adams está en su excelente forma habitual, tocando solos intensos que empujan pero se mantienen dentro de los límites del hard bop.
