Review
by Scott Yanow
John McLaughlin's first recording as a leader features the future innovator playing guitar in an English quartet. Although McLaughlin contributed all ten pieces, baritonist John Surman actually dominates this music, often swinging quite hard. The historically significant set, although a lesser-known item in McLaughlin's discography, is quite musical and enjoyable in its own right.

Reseña
por Scott Yanow
La primera grabación de John McLaughlin como líder presenta al futuro innovador tocando la guitarra en un cuarteto inglés. Aunque McLaughlin contribuyó con las diez piezas, el baritonista John Surman domina realmente esta música, a menudo con un swing bastante duro. El conjunto, históricamente significativo, aunque menos conocido en la discografía de McLaughlin, es bastante musical y agradable por derecho propio.
