This 1958 Riverside date was recorded during this group’s two month stint at The 5 Spot and features some fantastic interplay between a group of upcoming players including a young Donald Byrd and Elvin Jones. The Long Two/Four and Hastings Street Bounce are prime examples of the Hard Bop sound that would become one of the most enduring styles in jazz.
