Tenor saxophonist Clifford Jordan blew in from Warszawa in 1957 and put the NYC jazz scene on notice with a trio of excellent Blue Note sessions including Blowing in from Warszawa (co-led with John Gilmore), the self-titled Cliff Jordan, and Cliff Craft. This third album featured Jordan at the helm of a first-rate hard bop quintet with Art Farmer on trumpet, Sonny Clark on piano, George Tucker on bass, and Louis Hayes on drums. Side 1 presented three Jordan originals including the sublime "Laconia," "Soul-Lo Blues," and the hard-swinging title track. Side 2 found Jordan playing well-known tunes by Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and Duke Ellington including "Confirmation," "Anthropology," and a show-stopping version of the ballad "Sophisticated Lady."
