Gene Ammons Review by Scott Yanow
Tenorman Gene Ammons headed a series of notable studio jam session in the 1950s and this is one of the better ones. With such fine young players as trumpeter Idrees Sulieman, altoist Jackie McLean, pianst Mal Waldron, guitarist Kenny Burrell, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Art Taylor, Ammons and his friends jam through four numbers all of which clock in between 11:59 and 13:01. The results are an accessible and often exciting brand of bebop.

Gene Ammons Reseña por Scott Yanow
El tenor Gene Ammons encabezó una serie de notables jam sessions de estudio en la década de 1950 y ésta es una de las mejores. Con jóvenes músicos de la talla del trompetista Idrees Sulieman, el contralto Jackie McLean, el pianista Mal Waldron, el guitarrista Kenny Burrell, el bajista Paul Chambers y el batería Art Taylor, Ammons y sus amigos tocan cuatro temas, todos ellos entre las 11:59 y las 13:01. El resultado es un estilo de bebop accesible y a menudo emocionante. El resultado es un bebop accesible y a menudo emocionante.
