This would be the last album Trane would release before A Love Supreme, in spite of this, the album is suprisingly melodic. All of the pieces are Trane's own compositions, and the mood betrays none of intensity and energy that was soon to come. Instead, it's a relatively tranquil 40 minutes of music. Definetely not a good place to start listening to Trane, but a good listen nonetheless.
