Review

In 1963 Cannonball Adderley signed with the Capitol label, retaining the rights to some master tapes recorded earlier while he was with Riverside. This CD (a straight reissue of an earlier LP) therefore contains music much closer to the altoist's freewheeling Riverside period than to his R&Bish Capitol dates. Adderley's greatest band -- his sextet with cornetist Nat Adderley, Yusef Lateef (on tenor, flute and oboe), pianist Joe Zawinul, bassist Sam Jones, and drummer Louis Hayes -- is featured on such exciting numbers as "Jessica's Day," Jones' "Unit 7," and "The Jive Samba." A special treat of this live date is hearing the leader's introductory words to several of the songs. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide

Read About This Recording

In 1962 Cannonball Adderley had his strongest band ever, a sextet with brother Nat, pianist Joe Zawinul (the future founder of Weather Report), Sam Jones, Louis Hayes and the very valuable Yusef Lateef on tenor, flute and oboe. Jazz Workshop Revisited (which was named that because of Cannonball's great success with his Jazz Workshop album of 1959 which really launched his band) features this particular group in top form and shows just how valuable Lateef (who is heard on all three horns) was to the unit. Primitivo lives up to its name, Quincy Jones' Jessica's Day swings happily and other highpoints include Jones' Unit 7 and Nat Adderley's The Jive Samba.
