    Personnel:
  • Jimmy Forrest - tenor saxophone
  • Grant Green - guitar
  • Harold Mabern - piano
  • Gene Ramey - bass
  • Elvin Jones - drums

This was the first album that tenor saxophonist Jimmy Forrest made after his R&B phase ended. Particularly notable is that the set served as the recording debut of guitarist Grant Green; completing the band are pianist Harold Mabern, bassist Gene Ramey and drummer Elvin Jones. The top-notch group performs two ballads, "Caravan" and three basic Forrest originals, including the title cut. The music is essentially melodic and blues-based hard bop that looks toward soul-jazz. Everyone sounds in fine form.
