This LP-length CD reissue features pianist George Wallington and his 1957 quintet (which consists of trumpeter Donald Byrd, altoist Phil Woods, bassist Knobby Totah and drummer Nick Stabulas) stretching out on five numbers. 

The repertoire is highlighted by Bud Powell's "Dance of the Infidels" and Dizzy Gillespie's "Ow." Both Woods and Byrd (two up-and-coming players) are in excellent form, making this an enjoyable outing for bop fans. ~ Scott Yanow http://www.allmusic.com/album/jazz-at-hotchkiss-mw0000237669

Personnel: George Wallington (piano), Phil Woods (alto saxophone), Donald Byrd (trumpet), Knobby Totah (bass), Nick Stabulas (drums).
