In this collection of bass-led duets, Charlie Haden enlists Don Cherry (trumpet/flute), Archie Shepp (tenor), Hampton Hawes (piano) and a trumpet-playing Ornette Coleman on the four tracks. Hawes' playing on the Ornette-penned "Turnaround" is the clear straight-ahead highlight of this generally exploratory album. The Verve by Request Series features 180-gram vinyl, pressed at Third Man in Detroit.
