This mid-1960s soul-jazz collection features the trio of the organist Richard "Groove" Holmes, who, despite having been a working musician since the late 1950s, only came to public attention with his first hit, an uptempo reading of "Misty," included here. Holmes also performs a Latin-tinged version of Horace Silver`s classic "Song For My Father," and the hip, swinging title track is a further display of his remarkable invention.
