Taylor has described how the record company determined the choice of musicians on the session: "I said 'Coltrane okay, but I want to use all the musicians that I want.' I wanted to use Ted Curson, who's a much more contemporary trumpet player than the trumpet player I ended up with, Kenny Dorham." Relations between Taylor, who favoured a very avant-garde approach, and Dorham, who verbally disapproved of Taylor's "way-out" tendencies, were strained.[4]

Personnel

gollark: They are NOT decent. They have awful design, with apparently stuff like 50V power lines running beside data, are IMPOSSIBLEISH to repair, and are increasingly locked down.
gollark: DO NOT purchase Macbook.
gollark: Immensely troubling.
gollark: Aren't they not signing new nvidia drivers?
gollark: I've heard of wgpu, luminance, gfx-rs or something, that sort of thing.
