Some stirring renditions, furious solos, and alternately appealing and soothing alto statements by Earl Bostic. He's among the least-recognized, yet important members of the R&B sax class. His sidemen included Benny Golson, Mickey Baker, and John Coltrane. This collection was one of numerous albums Bostic issued on King during the '50s, and was briefly available on reissue in the Gusto series of the '70s.
