Of the many albums recorded by the Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Orchestra, this was the greatest. Reissued on CD as part of a large Mosaic box set, this set introduced Jones' best-known composition, "A Child Is Born," also has a colorful rendition of his sly "Tiptoe," and finds the big band ripping the roof off during the lengthy and very exciting "Fingers." The all-star cast (which includes flügelhornist Jones; drummer Lewis; trumpeter Marvin Stamm; trombonist Jimmy Knepper; tenor great Billy Harper; the reeds of Jerome Richardson, Jerry Dodgion, and Eddie Daniels; keyboardist Roland Hanna; and bassist Richard Davis; among others) is well served by Jones' inventive and swinging arrangements.
