If you listen to nothing else, please catch the track "If I were a bell" off of this album. Peterson's opening statement. The interplay between him and the late great drummer Bobby Durham is so slick, its absolutely sublime. One of those pieces of time where everything came togther in complete harmony and just played out.
An historical moment that never seems to garner the appreciation and respect it deserves.
It's the second track heard here...
