Exact repro reissue, originally released in 1965.  La Roca's three originals ('Basra,' which holds one's interest despite staying on one chord throughout, the blues 'Candu,' and the complex 'Tears Come From Heaven') are stimulating but it is the other three songs that really bring out the best playing in the quartet (which is comprised of tenor saxophonist Joe Henderson, pianist Steve Kuhn, and bassist Steve Swallow in addition to La Roca). 'Malaguena' is given a great deal of passion, Swallow's 'Eiderdown' (heard in its initial recording) receives definitive treatment, and the ballad 'Lazy Afternoon' is both haunting and very memorable; Henderson's tone perfectly fits that piece.

Joe Henderson (tenor sax); Steve Kuhn (piano); Steve Swallow (bass); Pete La Roca (drums)
