It was recorded live at the Five Spot Café in New York City on August 25, 1959, and released on the Blue Note label. English jazz guitarist Andy Summers referred to Burrell's solo on "Lover Man" as "one of the best jazz guitar solos ever recorded." Reception
The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3½ stars stating "As the dawn of the 1960s saw new-breed jazz being fomented, Burrell, Blakey, and company proved you could still swing and remain melodic while creating new sonic vistas. This recording is easily recommended to all". Track listing
