Commentary
All of Hutcherson's work with Jackie McLean is stellar. Destination... Out! is no exception.

I should probably confess that Jackie is one of my favorite alto saxophonists. That slashing, bluesy tone! It just kills me. It seems like everything he made for Blue Note in the Sixties is gold.

If you like Hutcherson or McLean or Grachan Moncur, you should check out the Moncur Mosaic Select set. It includes three astounding releases featuring all three men: One Step Beyond, Destination...Out!, and Evolution.
