...Night Session (Hampton Hawes Quartet; Contemporary, 3 LPs) seems designed to prove Composer Babbitt wrong, and to show once again that real jazz must be improvised. Pianist Hawes, Guitarist Jim Hall, Bass Player Red Mitchell and Drummer Bruz Freeman turned up at the studio one night and piled into Jordu and Groovin' High, and from there on "we just played because we love to play."

His humorous poems are truly funny rather than merely ingenious, the kind of humor at which we laugh without thinking first. His more serious offering, "Storm in Equinox," is one of the best things to come out of South Street of late.
