Duke Pearson rises to the challenge of writing for an all-star octet (with trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, trombonist Garnett Brown, altoist James Spaulding, Jerry Dodgion on alto and flute, Stanley Turrentine on tenor, bassist Gene Taylor, drummer Grady Tate, and the leader/pianist), contributing colorful frameworks and consistently challenging compositions. The set is full of diverse melodies (including a bonus track alternate take of "Los Malos Hombres" that was not on the original vinyl LP) played by a variety of distinctive soloists; many of these songs deserve to be revived. This is one of the finest recordings of Duke Pearson's career. [In 2007 Blue Note reissued The Right Touch in a remastered Rudy Van Gelder edition.] ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
