His first 3 albums—\u003cem\u003ePage One\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eOur Thing\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eIn ‘N Out\u003c\/em\u003e—were quintet dates where Henderson had his frequent collaborator trumpeter Kenny Dorham by his side, but on \u003cem\u003eInner Urge\u003c\/em\u003e, Henderson opted instead for a quartet setting with his the lone horn out in front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe extraordinary line-up included two members of the trailblazing John Coltrane Quartet—pianist \u003cstrong\u003eMcCoy Tyner\u003c\/strong\u003e and drummer\u003cstrong\u003e Elvin Jones\u003c\/strong\u003e—as well as Blue Note stalwart \u003cstrong\u003eBob Cranshaw\u003c\/strong\u003e on bass. Side 1 consists of 2 timeless Henderson compositions of differing temperaments that would go on to become standards: the intense title track “Inner Urge” and the jovial blues “Isotope,” which was an homage to \u003cstrong\u003eThelonious Monk\u003c\/strong\u003e. Side 2 opens with a 3rd Henderson original, the evocation “El Barrio” which opens with Henderson’s plaintive cry. A stunningly gorgeous ballad performance of \u003cstrong\u003eDuke Pearson’s\u003c\/strong\u003e piece “You Know I Care” follows before the album concludes with a brisk, up-tempo dash through the \u003cstrong\u003eCole Porter\u003c\/strong\u003e standard “Night and Day.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- plug-seven-hike-2026-10-29:end --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eMedia: Mint (M)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eSleeve: Mint (M)\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTrack List: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eA1.
