Picture is of Miles, not Clifford
I really have no complaints about the album, as it has had a big influence on my jazz playing. It's a shame that Clifford died so young in a car accident; his impact was huge in the years he was alive, but he could have done so much more. Of the albums the quintet released, the self-titled is my favorite, but Study in Brown is also a classic. They also released an awesome live album, At Basin Street which features Sonny Rollins on tenor sax.
My favorite tracks from Clifford Brown and Max Roach are "Joy Spring," "Delilah," "Daahoud," and the bass feature "These Foolish Things." "Delilah" in particular is a really great tune and has a very tasty groove. If you like jazz and haven't heard this album, you should check it out, and if you don't like jazz, this album might change your mind.
