Product Description

Jimmy Heath at age 33 made his recording debut as a leader on this Riverside session which has been reissued on CD in the OJC series. The hard bop tenor-saxophonist is in superior form, contributing five originals (of which "For Minors Only" is best known), jamming with an all-star sextet (including cornetist Nat Adderley, trombonist Curtis Fuller, pianist Wynton Kelly, bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Albert "Tootie" Heath) and taking two standards as ballad features. The excellent session of late '50s straightahead jazz is uplifted above the normal level by Heath's writing.

 「For minors only」、「Who needs it?」、「The thumper」をお奨めです。アルバム全体ほぼ小気味良い演奏で、アルバムを通して聞けると思います。  有名なCurtis Fuller、Nat Adderley、Wynton Kelly、Paul Chambersが参加しています。
