The organist shows his ur capabilities on the frantic opener "Speak Low," but hits a more sensitive groove for "Blue Moon," and gets close to an R&B mood on the longest cut, the eight-minute "The Walrus. This has been reissued with another 1968 session, That Healin' Feelin', on the single-disc Prestige CD Legends of Acid Jazz.
