Vinyl LP pressing. The great Malcolm Earl Mal Waldron makes his debut on Naked Lunch with a collection of his own compositions recorded in New York City during the early '60s in a trio formation with George Tucker on bass and Al Dreares at the drums. The composing skills of Waldron as a post-bop key figure are here on full display on both sides, although pieces like Modal-Air, Summerday, Ollie's Caravan, and Quiet Temple really squeeze the creative juice off the trio's playing, with Tucker and Dreares laying the rhythmic textures on Mal's many piano's inventions. Modal-Air, Easy Going, Ollie's Caravan, Lullaby Chant, Skipper's Waltz, Summerday, All of My Life, Love-Span, Quiet Temple, Call to Arms
