Adderley's burning 1959 live recording In San Francisco was something of a hit for the altoist and his quintet. Fully aware of the high standards they'd set, Cannon and producer Orrin Keepnews decided to return to the Jazz Workshop three years later for another hard-swinging affair. By then, Adderley's band had been fleshed out to a sextet distinguished by the presence of a second wind player in Yusef Lateef. Joe Zawinul had settled into the piano chair a year earlier, while Adderley's cornetist brother Nat and the rhythm team of Sam Jones and Louis Hayes were all holdovers from the previous S.F. record. The exotic, ominous one-chord vamp "Primitivo" makes effective use of Lateef's evocative flute and oboe touches. Another highlight is Nat's 11-minute "Jive Samba," a bossa-nova-based groove that actually found its way onto jukeboxes in severely abridged form. Here Lateef's flute proves to be a dynamic addition to the solo procession. --Marc Greilsamer
