A special highlight is "Invincible" which is an outstanding feature for altoist Vince Denham; whatever happened to him? Ellis composed four of the eight originals including one titled "The Devil Made Me Write This Piece!" This out-of-print Lp is well worth searching for.” AllMusic Review by Scott Yanow Ratings : AllMusic : 4 / 5 , Discogs : 4,37 / 5
