Remember hearing Woody Shaw at Sweet Basil in NYC in the late '70s. Same diamond-like approach, cool and intensely melodic, like offering the best of all possible worlds. And check out Mr. Spaulding's solo(s) on this date. This is the real stuff: great sophistication slyly concealed in the folds of goofy "Cadillac Jazz." Thank God they made some money out of it, anyway. Kirk Feather

Sweet. Horace Silver is one of the originaters of Hardbop and one of the most Perrenial writers in Jazz Music. This is a great Album.
