When Adderley joined the Riverside label, he was assured that his still-unformed band would be recorded promptly, whenever and wherever he felt ready. The quintet, featuring Nat Adderley and Bobby Timmons, was assembled in 1959 and the promise was kept that October at San Francisco's Jazz Workshop. The memorable result is heard here-one of the most exciting, influential, and successful "live" recordings in modern jazz history. With Nat Adderley, Bobby Timmons, Sam Jones, Louis Hayes.
