"As for that whole West Coast era, it was a great opening to reach the people - even though it made me angry to be pigeonholed like that. Some good records came out of that period, like Art Pepper Meets The Rhythm Section, with the Miles Davis rhythm section of the time" - Red Garland, Paul Chambers and Philly Joe Jones.
