A spectacular creative collaboration between two greats of our era masterfully supported by a world class rhythm section.

Bunky Green was born in Wisconsin, worked briefly with Charles Mingus, and moved to Chicago where he worked with greats lik Sonny Stitt, Louie Bellson, Andrew Hill, Yusef Lateef, and Ira Sullivan.
