Bassist Sam Jones's Riverside recordings have long been underrated. This CD reissue features Jones on bass and cello for four songs apiece with a particularly strong supporting cast including cornetist Nat Adderley, trumpeter Blue Mitchell, trombonist Melba Liston, altoist Cannonball Adderley (who only takes one solo) and Jimmy Heath on tenor; Victor Feldman and Heath provided the colorful arrangments. Highlights include "Four," "Sonny Boy," Jones's "In Walked Ray" and "Over the Rainbow" but all eight selections in this straightahead set are rewarding.

Personnel: Sam Jones (bass, cello); Les Spann (guitar); Cannonball Adderley (alto saxophone); Jimmy Heath (tenor saxophone); Sammy Heath (tenor saxophone); Tate Houston (baritone saxophone); Blue Mitchell (trumpet); Nat Adderley (cornet); Melba Liston (trombone); Victor Feldman (piano, vibraphone); Wynton Kelly (piano); Louis Hayes (drums).
