Not to one of the top\n  places, but from this time on Herbie Mann was one of the superstars in Atlantic’s collection of jazz musicians. He was\n  known as 'our man with the flute', and the critics in the early Sixties were full of praise for him. He became even\n  more famous, and probably richer, through soundtracks and later on sometimes rather commercialized productions.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  Well, good for him. 'The Man' serves up jazz pure on this recording, made live at the legendary Village Gate club,\n  which is no wonder considering the rhythm group that includes Ahmad Abdul-Malik and Rudy Collins. The composer of\n  \"Comin’ Home Baby\", Ben Tucker, also makes an appearance as a guest soloist before the two Gershwin numbers from \"Porgy\n  And Bess\" offer a wealth of rhythm pure. On the cover text of the LP, Willis Conover, who hosted the Newport Jazz\n  Festival as a sideline (older jazz fans will know his baritone voice from AFN broadcasts), describes in detail the\n  ethnic background of the musicians who come from all over the world – from Romania to Puerto Rico.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  The three numbers are by no means commonplace. Perhaps a tasty flute cocktail would be a good description. This true\n  rarity from Atlantic’s treasure trove in the early Sixties has long been marked down on the wish list of many fans and\n  at long last it’s available again.\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n  This Speakers Corner LP was remastered using pure analogue components only, from the master tapes through to the\n  cutting head.\n  \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n    \u003cb\u003eSide One:\u003c\/b\u003e\n    \u003cbr\u003e\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  1.
