Having listened to countless Miles and Trane albums, I'm quite familiar with Mr. P.C.'s work. Often enough, however, I would ignore his playing simply because the recording quality of his bass isn't up to par with that of lead instruments like horns, the piano or the guitar. This album changes all that.

"Paul Chambers Quintet" is the real deal -- a fine place to understand what the fuss about Mr. P.C. is all about. The album's excellent sound quality exposes the great bass player, laying bare every note, nuance and emotion in both his arco and pizzicato work.

In addition, his sidemen here play with equal fire: Clifford Jordan on tenor sax, Donald Byrd on trumpet, Tommy Flanagan on the piano, and the great Elvin Jones on traps. Those used to Elvin's drum-bashing with the John Coltrane Quartet will be surprised with his brush-playing here, which is every bit a revelation.

Get this album. If you must, get also the earlier "Whims of Chambers". But this is certainly the better deal.
