• The sizzling groove of the ten-minute opening track of Duke Pearson’s great 1968 album The Phantom sets the stage for one of the least noticed jewels of the Blue Note catalogue. The pianist, composer, arranger and Blue Note stalwart gathered a superb line-up of musicians, including vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, flautist Jerry Dodgion, guitarists Sam Brown and Al Gafa, bassist Bob Cranshaw and the great percussion team with Mickey Roker, Victor Pantojo and “Potato” Valdes on drums and congas.
