Reception

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars and states "His light touch and perfect taste are very much present along with a steady stream of purposeful single-note lines that are full of surprising twists... this recommended set (a definitive Wynton Kelly release) showcases magical trio performances".[2] The All About Jazz Review by David Rickert said "Kelly was never in better form than on this album. A great piano trio date".[3]

Personnel

gollark: You would probably be better off shipping it minified then compressed via whatever compression algorithm can unpack it without being huge itself.
gollark: In that case, why even actually *read* it at all?
gollark: Yes. But in any case, do you just start a day with a long list of expectations for what you'll read today?
gollark: Your expectations were wrong, evidently.
gollark: PotatOS is minified via some random surprisingly reliable program written for Roblox 7 years ago.
