Review by Scott Yanow
Few jazz followers would think of trumpeter Chuck Mangione and pianist Keith Jarrett as former members of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, but in 1966, they both worked in the drummer's classic hard bop unit and the stint gave them needed exposure and helped the pair to develop their own individual voices. With tenor saxophonist Frank Mitchell and bassist Reggie Johnson completing the quintet, this particular version of the Jazz Messengers only had the opportunity to record this one excellent live LP but proved to be a worthy successor to their more acclaimed predecessors.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Pocos seguidores del jazz pensarían en el trompetista Chuck Mangione y el pianista Keith Jarrett como antiguos miembros de los Jazz Messengers de Art Blakey, pero en 1966, ambos trabajaron en la clásica unidad de hard bop del baterista y el período les dio la exposición necesaria y ayudó a la pareja a desarrollar sus propias voces individuales. Con el saxofonista tenor Frank Mitchell y el bajista Reggie Johnson completando el quinteto, esta versión particular de los Jazz Messengers sólo tuvo la oportunidad de grabar este excelente LP en directo, pero demostró ser un digno sucesor de sus más aclamados predecesores.
