Recorded when he was just 21 and virtually unknown outside Chicago, these sessions served notice that John Klemmer was a saxophonist to be reckoned with -- a young man with, as Down Beat put it, "the mature musician's disdain for the empty gesture" whose music was "direct, intense, and together."

Recorded June 1967 at Ter-Mar Studios, Chicago
