Synopsis

Product Description
The noted West Coast composer makes his ESP debut accompanied by his thenwife
Barbara Donald on trumpet, Teddy Smith on bass, John Hicks on piano, and
Marvin Pattillo on percussion. Recorded in August 1966, Staying on the Watch is
an important fusion of straight-ahead and avant jazz. Barbara Donald is a superb
trumpeter who has made a stern contribution to the legacy of women performers,
and has been widely written about. Pianist John Hicks, who makes his New York
debut on the record, went on to become one of the most prolific pianists in jazz.
