1963 trio set recorded in New York from legendary pianist Malcolm Earl "Mal" Waldron on Naked Lunch with a collection of his own compositions recorded in New York City. Scintilating form with George Tucker on bass and Al Dreares on 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.
