They were recorded by Alan Grant and broadcast live on radio in the last week of 1967 and the first week of 1968. The montage of Adderley's monologues are taken from a recording made at the [Keystone Korner](/source/Keystone_Korner) jazz club, San Francisco. At the time of the recordings, Adderley was under contract to Capitol. ## Reception Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [1] The Penguin Guide to Jazz [2] *[The Penguin Guide to Jazz](/source/The_Penguin_Guide_to_Jazz)* described it as "a well-travelled private recording from the Half Note, entertaining but slightly mechanical".[2] The [AllMusic](/source/AllMusic) reviewer suggested that the album was better than Adderley's official Capitol releases from the same time.[1] ## Track listing 1.
