Down Beat original review: BRILLIANT CORNERS

“This is really a mood album, the kind of mood that envelops corners that can be called brilliant but are more inimitable than that increasingly indiscriminate adjective might connote. This is Riverside’s most important modern jazz LP to date.” (Nat Hentoff)
