“In the mid-1980s, bassist Dave Holland led his finest group, a quintet with up-and-coming altoist Steve Coleman, trombonist Julian Priester, trumpeter Kenny Wheeler and (on this date) drummer Marvin ‘Smitty’ Smith. The all-star musicians pack plenty of music and concise solos into each performance (nine originals), and the unique group carved out its own niche, not quite free but certainly unpredictable.” (Review by Scott Yanow for AllMusic. See here.)
Performers: Dave Holland (bs), Kenny Wheeler (tp/p-tp/cn/fl-h), Julian Priester (tb), Steve Coleman (a/s-sx/fl), Marvin "Smitty" Smith (dr/pc)
