In his review on Allmusic, Scott Yanow notes that "This final installment of a 1975 concert in Amsterdam finds tenor saxophonist Clifford Jordan in fine form... Like the previous two volumes, this one is also recommended" [2]

Clifford Laconia Jordan was an American jazz tenor saxophone player. While in Chicago, he performed with Max Roach, Sonny Stitt, and some rhythm and blues groups. He moved to New York City in 1957, after which he recorded three albums for Blue Note. He recorded with Horace Silver, J.J. Johnson, and Kenny Dorham, among others. He was part of the Charles Mingus Sextet, with Eric Dolphy, during its 1964 European tour.

Art Farmer Quintet at Boomers is a live album by Art Farmer recorded in New York in 1976 and originally released on the Japanese East Wind label. A second volume of recordings was released in 2003 on the Test of Time label. This quintet also presages the later, great, 1980s quintet Art Farmer kept, in that it presents us the regal front line of Art Farmer together with Clifford Jordan, a pairing first recorded in the late fifties in Horace Silver's band, but then crystallized in several magnificent, and more feted, recordings in the 1980s – really a high-point in all of Farmer's remarkably consistent discography. But here we get to hear them together in the 1970s, too – and it is most edifying. They would go on to even more pristine heights together, refining their ensemble concept. Not that there's anything lacking in this lesser-known, but fabulous, document of one of jazz's truly great partnerships.
