Clifford Jordan and
Junior Cook make for a perfectly compatible team on this 1984 CD. While assisted by pianist
Kirk Lightsey, bassist
Cecil McBee, and drummer
Eddie Gladden, the very distinctive tenors inspire each other on originals, obscurities,
Charles Davis' "Half and Half," and "Groovin' High." High-quality hard bop with a bit of competitiveness resulting in some fiery moments.
