Known as a then-young Kirks more consistent works, 1962s We Free Kings is a solid balance of bop with complimenting soul, backed by two different rhythm sections one including Hank Jones (piano) and Wendell Marshall (bass), and the other with Richard Wyands (piano) and Art Davis (bass), while Charlie Persip (drums) maintains throughout. The repertoire is primarily a showcase of Kirks skill is a composer, though his take on Birds Blues For Alice is not to be missed.
