I love his playing on other Blue Note albums like Eric Dolphy's Out to Lunch and like his playing I've heard from the '70s like on Pat Martino's Footprints, the recorded 'pickup' tone on this sucks, but I still enjoy his playing. It would be cool to hear everybody's top RD recordings.

Hey Jake. Yeah, many of us 'older cats' are victims of that
direct to the board' recording fiasco of that period. Every time I play one of my older recordings, I have to suffer through that. That isn't Richards sound...that's a line direct to the board.
