From Billboard - October 24, 1970: It's Thad Jones and Mel Lewis and their big band, flute player Jeremy Steig, trumpet player Kenny Burrell all playing separately and together, recorded lie during a European Tour in December last year. The final 16 minute jammies', "Once Around" is exciting, proving by musicianly spirit and audience reaction that jazz ain't dead.
