OJC limited edition
Allmusic:
Altoist Charles McPherson and pianist Barry Harris are the stars of this live bop-oriented session. Trumpeter Lonnie Hillyer does his best although he stumbles a bit on the rapid "Shaw 'Nuff," drummer Billy Higgins and the forgotten bassist Ray McKinney are fine in support and the repertoire (ranging from the funky "The Viper" and "I Can't Get Started" to "Here's That Rainy Day" and the recent "Never Let Me Go") is diverse and challenging. It's an excellent CD overall.

-1. "The Viper" - McPherson - 4:16
-2. "I Can't Get Started" - Duke, Gershwin - 9:10
-3. "Shaw 'Nuff" - Brown, Fuller, Gillespie - 10:15
-4. "Here's That Rainy Day" - Burke, VanHeusen - 6:30
-5. "Never Let Me Go" - Evans, Livingston - 11:30
-6. "Suddenly" - McPherson - 6:50
