Description
The complete LP + 2 bonus tracks - special gatefold limited edition - 180g virgin vinyl. Oliver Nelson's breakthrough LP features jazz luminaries Freddie Hubbard, Eric Dolphy, Bill Evans, Paul Chambers and Roy Haynes, and contains the tune "Stolen Moments," now considered a standard.
'Stolen Moments' had in fact already been recorded by Nelson the previous year as 'The Stolen Moment' on an album by the Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis Big Band titled Trane Whistle. Coincidently, this early version (included here as a bonus track) also featured Eric Dolphy and Roy Haynes, as well as George Barrow.
