DOWN BEAT original review:The Concert Jazz Band
“The main soloists on the record are Mulligan, Brookmeyer, and Sims. Mulligan builds his solos with more care than he has in some time. Each phrase relates to the next; each solo is like a story. This is one of the best records of 1960.” (Don DeMicheal)
