• Track Listing

The New Rhythm and Blues Quintet honed their chops and sound for several years before starting to record with Eddie Kramer and signing to Columbia. Their wholly original, highly influential 1969 debut features their own compositions (one co-written with Carla Bley) plus covers of Eddie Cochran and Sun Ra. Amazingly, this LP has never been reissued; get it on CD or gatefold vinyl: "C’mon Everybody," "Rocket #9," "Ida," "You Can’t Hide," "C’mon if You’re Comin’," "Hymn Number 5," "Hey! Baby" and more! Omnivore.
