[edit] About the Album

Without Wayne Shorter (who was working with Weather Report and his own solo projects) and Freddie Hubbard, Hancock along with Ron Carter and Tony Williams reunited, and toured with a young Wynton Marsalis. This album was from the tour.

Some of the songs were from the 1965 - 1968 Miles Davis quintet, while one was from Hancock's own repertoire.
