"I need to write a review because I see there are not any.I've been enjoying this as an lp for about 23 years. Perhaps my second favorite jazz recording next to Kind of Blue.This is a very mellow recording. The most understated jazz I know of. Good for late night listening.John Lewis and Bill Perkins are excellent on this recording. And Jim Hall is perhaps even more outstanding. These guys gel together and play so well, perhaps like they never have done individually. They must be feeding off each other. Perhaps John Lewis is the genius behind this recording.I see it is not an inexpensive recording here. But if you love undestated mellow jazz, you won't find better."
