      Former Ray Charles saxophonist David "Fathead" Newman holds his own with this 1960 quartet for Atlantic made of Wynton Kelly (piano), Paul Chambers (bass) and Charlie Persip (drums). As with many albums by tenor saxophonists of this period, one can hear the all-pervading bebop influence of John Coltrane in this set. While not filled with the hard bop/soul jazz Newman would come to be known for, this is definitely an essential album for any fan.
