True gentlemen of jazz...

"Kenny Barron, Ray Drummond, and Ben Riley make up among the finest trios in contemporary jazz. This studio album is seemless, showcasing Barron's compositional chops as well as a number of somewhat offbeat choices from Monk, Rufus Reid, Blue Mitchell, etc. The three musicians function as a unit, as any great trio should, so that even when Barron is the supposed soloist, you find yourself drawn into Drummonds melodious basslines and Riley's subtle textures."
