1968. Not to be confused with the classic 1958 studio album with the same name, this is a live set from ten years later and WITH a completely different band...but it's still a great band and a great set. "obscure live set....not even listed on most discographies...strong if underrated band...well recorded and highlighted by "Slide's Delight," [saxophonist Bill] Harper's ballad feature on "You Don't Know What Love is," and a spirited remake of "Moanin'"."
