Originaly released in 1966. Gatefold exact repro, manufactured by Rhino. "...this excellent set falls between hard bop and the avant-garde, often hinting at both. Hubbard's regular group of the time (with James Spaulding on alto and flute, pianist Albert Dailey, bassist Bob Cunningham, and drummer Otis Ray Appleton, plus guest conga player Ray Barretto) performs the debut version of his famous 'Little Sunflower,' an excellent remake of 'Up Jumped Spring,' and four lesser-known pieces. Hubbard and Spaulding made for an excellent team and there are plenty of exciting moments on this brief but potent set." -All Music Guide
