Review by Scott Yanow
This CD features one of trumpeter Woody Shaw's finest groups, a quintet with trombonist Steve Turre, pianist Mulgrew Miller, bassist Stafford James, and drummer Tony Reedus. The five-song program has an original apiece by each of the musicians (other than Reedus) with two by the leader. Shaw was one of the great trumpeters of all time, as he shows on such advanced yet swinging numbers as "Eastern Joy Dance," "Rahsaan's Run," and "Song of Songs." Virtually every Woody Shaw recording is well worth acquiring, including this one.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Este CD presenta uno de los mejores grupos del trompetista Woody Shaw, un quinteto con el trombonista Steve Turre, el pianista Mulgrew Miller, el bajista Stafford James y el batería Tony Reedus. El programa de cinco canciones contiene una original de cada uno de los músicos (aparte de Reedus) y dos del líder. Shaw fue uno de los grandes trompetistas de todos los tiempos, como demuestra en números tan avanzados pero llenos de swing como «Eastern Joy Dance», «Rahsaan's Run» y «Song of Songs». Merece la pena adquirir prácticamente todas las grabaciones de Woody Shaw, incluida ésta.
