Reception

The Allmusic review stated "It is ironic that on tenor saxophonist Gene Ammons' final recording date, the last song he performed was the standard "Goodbye." That emotional rendition is the high point of this session... It's a fine ending to a colorful career".[1]

Personnel
gollark: You clearly know basic English grammar and Markdown formatting.
gollark: Yes, okay, that's the main verb of that clause.
gollark: I said "simplest solution", not "most likely" then, though I think the Wyatt hypothesis is both.
gollark: It is not proof. Proof is not really available for anything beyond logic and maths. But epistemology is a bit irrelevant.
gollark: The simplest solution is that you *are* WyattPlayzPC. Obviously.
