Bob Mover was very strongly influenced by
Lee Konitz at this point in time. Doubling on alto and soprano, he does play quite well on a variety of standards, including "We'll Be Together Again" and "Milestones." The supporting cast is quite strong (trumpeter
Claudio Roditi, pianist
Kenny Barron, bassist
Ron McClure, drummer
Ben Riley and percussionist
Rafael Cruz), and overall, this is a fine hard bop set (not yet reissued on CD) that was a solid step forward for the saxophonist.
