Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis and his quartet's 1983 SteepleChase LP, which included pianist Kenny Drew. Magnificently iconic tenor player to come out of the post-swing era, Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis (1922-1986) cut two albums for SteepleChase during his later years. This album was recorded in 1983 in Copenhagen and earned superlative reviews all over the world.
SteepleChase Records is a jazz record company and label based in Copenhagen, Denmark. SteepleChase was founded in 1972 by Nils Winther.
Allmusic called it "one of his very best" stating "Tenorman Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis had already been a potent force in jazz for 35 years when he recorded this set but as it turned out his SteepleChase date (his next-to-last session) was one of the strongest of his career ... Davis was at the peak of his powers during this recording.
"Nothing valedictory about this date. No signs of decline. It's hard to believe it was Jaw's last album as a leader. Just the thing if you didn't miss your water until your well went dry." - Cadence
