Note:
The records were not released in the sequence of the performances and the people at Verve have created some confusion about when this concert actually took place. The booklet that accompanies the Joe Henderson record puts the date at July 2, the material with this CD states
- I believe correctly--that it happened on July 1, and the Verve website has July 7 as the recording date.

"Apres un Reve"

With just one composition by Roland Hanna, this record is based on improvisations around classical pieces from Schubert, Fauré, Chopin and Mahler, among others.

"Dream Keeper"

"The dream keeper and other poems", by Langston Hughes.

As I Grew Older

It was a long time ago.
I have almost forgotten my dream.
But it was there then,
In front of me,
Bright like a sun-
-My dream.

And then the wall rose,
Rose slowly,
Slowly,
Dimming,
Hiding,
The light of my dream
Rose until it touched the sky-
-The wall.

Shadow.
I am black.

I lie down in the shadow.
No longer the light of my dream before me,
Above me.
Only the thick wall.
Only the shadow.

My hands!
My dark hands!
Break through the wall!
Find my dream!
Help me to shatter this darkness,
To smash this night,
To break this shadow
Into a thousand lights of sun,
Into a thousand whirling dreams
Of sun!

Bassist Sam Jones, always best known for being a sideman (most notably with Cannonball Adderley's Quintet), recorded three superior Riverside albums as a leader during 1960-62 that have all been reissued on CD in the OJC series. This particular one, the third, features Jones on bass and cello in several settings. Four selections (including Horace Silver's "Strollin'" and "Unit Seven") are with an all star nonet/tentet while four others showcase Jones's cello in quintets with either Les Spann or Frank Strozier on flute and Israel Crosby or Ron Carter on bass.
