It has a core group of Freddie, George Benson, Hubert Laws, Richard Wyands, Ron Carter and Jack DeJohnette, along with strings arranged by Sebesky. One of the tunes is 'Uncle Albert Admiral Halsey'. =
The playing on this thing just BURNS though! Freddie is probably my favorite trumpet player and I always recommend this record to people. Check it out.

First,I hope you thank your mother for putting you on the RIGHT tract !
I was back in Brooklyn when that vinyl was recorded in the Fall of 1971 and
it was so popular that I think it was that recording (First Light) that earned Freddie entry into Carnegie Hall (57th Street & 7th Avenue,NYC) circa 1975 with two (2) Pittsburghers - George Benson and Stanley Turrentine.
I was there in the peanut gallery and like happiness,it's an event I remember to this day.

Thanks for sharing and like Julian "Cannonball" said : Walk Tall,Walk Tall !


Mr.Hubbard wore a banana coloured suit yit was an evening if I'm not mistaken,it was so popular that it earned Freddie entry into Carnreleased around when that recording in
