Title: Simply Fantastic
Product review: I have known of the great though not well known Frank Strozier for many years. In fact he is the man that made me want to become a saxophone player, the very night I heard him live when i was nine years old.I purchased some of the music on this release on cassette several years back. This Cd is so much better. The audio quality of the music has been improved, and more importantly this release includes alternate takes of some songs.It is a mystery why Mr. Strozier has not enjoyed the recognition he deserved then and still does. This early session with him as the leader is documentation to that point as he is heard here in top form both as a player and as a composer. The playing of Booker Little is the perfect compliment to Strozier's smooth alto. The use of the Miles Davis rhythm section of Jimmy Cobb, Wynton Kelly and Mr.PC Paul Chambers makes this release one that all true aficionados of Jazz should have in their collection
