From the liner notes -
This unusual and richly inventive album should do much to emphasize the important fact that Nat Adderley is swiftly and steadily rising towards a position in the very front ranks of today's jazz artists.

This rise can largely be credited to such basic factors as a sharp and continuing maturing of Nat's talents, to an ever-increasing fulfillment of the young star's vast promise, and to a heightened awareness by the jazz public of just how much Nat has to offer. The younger Adderley brother's playing contains a most uncommon degree of wit, warmth, imagination and power; and he has also a thorough command of his instrument-which, by choice, has always been the slightly sharper- pitched cornet rather than the trumpet - over an awesomely wide range.

It is worth noting in particular that Nat's stature grew with startling speed during the year preceding the recording of this album. For this was the first year (starting in the Fall of 1959) of the new and phenomenally successful Cannonball Adderly Quintet, in which Nat is featured alongside his brother; thus it was a year in which, night after night, Nat was able to play the kind of music he most enjoys and in the best of company. In other words, a happy year for Nat : and his work (on this album and elsewhere) strikingly demonstrates the excellent results of that happiness.

Review by Ron Wynn
Nat Adderley has seldom played with more fire, verve, and distinction as he does on That's Right! It places him in the company of an expanded sax section that includes his brother Cannonball on alto, Yusef Lateef on tenor, flute, and oboe, Jimmy Heath and Charlie Rouse on tenor, and baritone saxophonist Tate Houston. Solos crackle, the backing is tasty and stimulating, and the eight songs range from brisk standards to delightful originals.
