I have an original copy. I bought it a few years after it came out-- I was about age 18. The three tracks I always listen to (Stolen Moments, Teenie's Blues, and Yearnin) never age. Hubbard's solos on Stolen Moments and Teenie's Blues are so beautifully direct, succinct, and soulful. Nelson's solos sound composed in advance, and maybe they were-- they are, as you say, noble. Those voicings in the melody statement in Yearnin' are brilliant. I could go on, but instead I would like to invite you to visit my music blog at www.beethovensbreakfast.blogspot.com.Bill MetcalfeNelson, B.C.
