Elvin Jones is best known for his work with John Coltrane during the first half of the '60s, but who has also played with everyone from Miles Davis to Sonny Rollins to Grant Green to Duke Ellington.
"New Agenda" was Jones' first release for Vanguard in 1975. There's a pretty heavyweight reeds section behind him here - mainstay Steve Grossman with help on different tracks from Azar Lawrence, Joe Farrell and Frank Foster.
