The unusual structure — two separate but sonically related quartets recorded six months apart at the same studio — was Keepnews' idea. He asked Henderson in the liner notes whether the different rhythm sections had changed his playing. Henderson's answer was that Friedman had a more romantic approach, Barron something harder-driving, but that the presence of Ron Carter throughout held both sessions together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRon Carter plays on all seven tracks and contributed two compositions. \"R.J.\" was named for his son; \"First Trip\" is similarly personal. Henderson wrote \"The Bead Game\" (eight minutes, free, no apparent melody) and the angular title track. \"Invitation\" — by Bronisław Kaper, the Polish-born film composer whose jazz standards have been recorded repeatedly — opens Side A. \"I've Got You Under My Skin\" closes the record. \"Waltz for Zweetie\" (B2) has a credit history: the original pressing attributed it to Walter Bishop Jr. and misspelled the title as \"Sweetie.\" Keepnews later corrected both — the composer is Bishop's father, Walter Bishop Sr., and the dedication is to someone called Zweetie, not Sweetie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is Henderson's first studio recording with Jack DeJohnette — they had performed together but never taped. DeJohnette was twenty-two. The original Milestone MSP 9017 has been out of print on vinyl for more than fifty years. Kevin Gray mastered this edition \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003efrom the original master tapes for the Jazz Dispensary and Craft Recordings' Top Shelf Series; pressing is 180g.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Milestone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43414519316539,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/3203\/3339\/files\/a1846080134_10.jpg?v=1776067405","url":"https:\/\/lushliferecords.com.au\/products\/joe-henderson-tetragon-2026-milestone-jazz-dispensary-vinyl-lp","provider":"Lush Life Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
