A landmark session that features two of the greatest tenor talents to emerge from the rich Chicago scene of the 50s – both working head to head here in a fantastic early showcase for Blue Note! The set's less of the "blowing session" promised in the title – at least in comparison to some of those dates on Prestige Records at the time – and although Clifford Jordan was already a rising star, getting attention on the east coast – the album's maybe even more noteworthy for the presence of John Gilmore – making a rare appearance here away from the Sun Ra Arkestra, where he spent most of his career! Both players are wonderful – and the album features the duo in a twin-tenor frontline, with backing by Horace Silver on piano, Curley Russell on bass, and Art Blakey on drums – a perfect Blue Note rhythm trio, who really send the whole thing home. Titles include "Evil Eye", "Status Quo", "Bo-Till", and "Blue Lights". CD features the bonus track "Let It Stand". © 1996-2024, Dusty Groove, Inc.

Additional Marks & Notes
If something is noteworthy, we try to note it in the comments — especially if it is an oddity that is the only wrong thing about the record. This might include, but isn't limited to, warped records, tracks that skip, cover damage or wear as noted above, or strictly cosmetic flaws.
Used CD Grade
We only use the grade "Used CD" for non-new CDs. This all-encompassing grade was chosen it because we only buy and offer used CDs in the best possible condition.
When you purchase a used CD you can expect the disc to be free of all but the lightest of surface marks, the case to be clean (we often change the cases ourselves), and the booklet to be in good shape. Used CDs may show some signs of use, but if there are significant details or defects we will describe the item's condition (just like we do with LPs), so look for notes on cutout marks, stickers, promo stamps or other details before ordering.
All of our used CDs are guaranteed to play without skipping or flaws. After you receive a used CD from Dusty Groove, you have 1 week to play it to determine that it plays correctly. If it does not, you can request a return for a full refund.
