Pianist Mal Waldron's music is characterized by a heavily-brooding rhythmic
quality, with the left hand usually carrying the theme at one repetitious tempo
while the right hammers away in juxtaposition with a counter tempo (usually
faster). Such was the case with "Up Popped the Devil," "Snake Out" and
"Changachangachang," three very Waldronian pieces in both structure and
execution, the latter deriving its melody from the whole-tone scale. Aside from
Waldron, the record's strongest points were bassist Reggie Workman and drummer
Billy Higgins, their work being sensitive and supportive throughout.
