Review by Scott Yanow
This CD reissue brings back an Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis session in which the distinctive tenor saxophonist is joined by a 13-piece big band arranged by Oliver Nelson. Most significant is the inclusion of the original version of "Stolen Moments" (here called "The Stolen Moment" and predating the more famous Oliver Nelson recording by several months). Eric Dolphy is in the backup group but is not heard from in a solo capacity. There are some spots for trumpeters Richard Williams, Clark Terry and Bobby Bryant along with Nelson on alto but this is primarily Davis' showcase. On a set comprised of four Oliver Nelson originals, the ballad "You Are Too Beautiful" and the leader's "Jaws," Lockjaw as usual shows plenty of emotion during his driving solos.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Esta reedición en CD recupera una sesión de Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis en la que el inconfundible saxofonista tenor está acompañado por una big band de 13 músicos con arreglos de Oliver Nelson. Lo más significativo es la inclusión de la versión original de "Stolen Moments" (aquí llamada "The Stolen Moment" y anterior en varios meses a la grabación más famosa de Oliver Nelson). Eric Dolphy está en el grupo de acompañamiento, pero no se le escucha como solista. Hay algunos espacios para los trompetistas Richard Williams, Clark Terry y Bobby Bryant, junto con Nelson en el contralto, pero este es principalmente el escaparate de Davis. En un set compuesto por cuatro originales de Oliver Nelson, la balada "You Are Too Beautiful" y "Jaws" del líder, Lockjaw, como de costumbre, muestra mucha emoción durante sus solos.
