オムニバスアルバム。だが、他のアルバムから漏れた演奏を集めたものではない。録音年で見ると、1974年3曲、73年1曲、72年3曲、70年1曲という構成。そして、リリースは74年11月22日。全8曲がGet Up With Itのために録音されたと思いたくなるほど、統一感があり連続性を感じる。プロデューサーであるテオ・マセロの作品とも言える。
一曲一曲を細かく分析する必要はないが、Honky Tonk(70年5月19日録音)は、キース・ジャレットがマイルスグループでの最初の録音になる。フェンダー・ローズを弾いている。一方、ハービー・ハンコックはクラビネットを演奏。キースにとっては入門試験だったのかも知れない。見事に合格し、フィルモアでの6月17日から4日連続のライブに参加した。
