Allmusic[2]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow noted "Other than the opening "Doo-Wah-Doo" and the closing "Cherry Red," both of which include guitarist Thomas Muller, bassist Ole Skipper Mosgard and drummer Thorkild Moller, this is a set of unaccompanied piano and vocals by the great veteran Jay McShann. The music is typical for McShann, with veteran blues (such as "After Hours" and "How Long Blues"), the standard "Ace in the Hole," and some swinging boogie-based originals".[2]

Personnel
gollark: Weird, it still does this at 20px.
gollark: I expect the issue is the highly asymmetric margins.
gollark: I am attempting to investigate this with devtools.
gollark: I feel like the bottom row is a bit badly aligned.
gollark: Presumably `cp` is trying to actually write to the destination, and something something locking?
