The four names are printed across the top of the jacket. The same rhythm section runs through Jordan's records of the period, several of which carry the trio's name in their titles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFive pieces, three of them on the first side. \"John Coltrane\" is Bill Lee's tribute to the saxophonist, \"Highest Mountain\" is Jordan's own, and the first side closes with Thelonious Monk's \"Blue Monk.\" The second side holds two performances of better than ten minutes each, written by Cedar Walton and Sam Jones. The album runs a little under forty-three minutes. Stanley Ray's cover illustration is carried over from the original jacket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTime Traveler Recordings, the archival label the producer Zev Feldman launched in 2025 in collaboration with Craft Recordings, reissues it as TT-M007 in the Muse Master Edition Series.
