Down Beat original review
“Miles’ first 12” LP enlists the aid of bassist Oscar Pettiford, Philadelphia pianist Red Garland, and drummer Philly Jo Jones. The two originals, both sparely built but intriguing, are by Miles. Pettiford is solid; Jones has a lot of fire along with taste and works very well behind Miles; Garland is good but has a frequently idle left hand on middle and up tempos that thereby takes a dimension away from most of his choruses. Miles is fine, and plays with so much heart and intelligently original conception that he’s consistently cooking. Dig, for example, his dimple lyrically effective muted work on ‘Face’, the way he renews ‘Tunisia’, and the blues-deep warmth of his horn in ‘Haze’. Good, informative notes by Ira Gitler.” (Ralph J. Gleason)
