This is one of tenor saxophonist
Eddie Harris' most famous and significant LPs. He displays his mastery of the electronic varitone saxophone (virtually the only player before
John Klemmer to get his own sound on the electric sax) during the memorable "Theme in Search of a Movie" and particularly on his hit version of "Listen Here." A couple of tunes add a pair of percussionists and "Sham Time" features a horn section in back of
Harris; the basic quartet is comprised of the leader, pianist
Jodie Christian, bassist Melvin Jackson, and drummer
Richard Smith. A classic date. ~ Scott Yanow
