In 1972, Hampton Hawes began to fully explore electric keyboards. Although his longtime fans were not happy with the temporary move, Hawes' music at the time was actually more creative than it was often rated. There are dated and poppish elements to this out of print Prestige LP, but also some fine solos from tenor saxophonist Harold Land, trumpeter Oscar Brashear, guitarist Arthur Adams, and the leader. Hawes deserves credit for his willingness to take chances, and even if this album (consisting of seven moody originals) is not as significant as most of his boppish trio dates from the 1950s, it deserves to be reevaluated, for it is better than often thought.~Scott Yanow
