Eddie Harris – tenor saxophone; Wynton Kelly – piano (tracks 1, 2, 6 & 7); Warren Stephens – guitar; Melvin Jackson – bass; Bucky Taylor – drums; The Malcom Dodds Singers – vocals.

A really fantastic album that's one of Eddie Harris' most unique albums of the 60s! The record features Eddie blowing in that lean and soulful mode that he used on his best Vee Jay albums – a bit exotic, but never meandering, with impeccable placement in all his solos, and a tone that's probably one of the most revolutionary he ever used. Some tracks have a backing chorus of female voices, singing in a floating mode that's hip and easy – and others are straighter jazz tunes, with a nice little groove.
