I have over 70 cds of Duke's music: that's saying I'm a total fan.After Newport 56, he got real serious, not having to provide music for dancers, already a legend, he went totally free with his men he knew so well and recording has got to be good. Afro-Bossa is a must.I've read somewhere that Marsalis declared his admiration for this album: what else do you need ? Every minute is fine.
