Review by Scott Yanow
Although bassist Ray Drummond is the leader of this trio set, he shares the spotlight quite evenly with pianist Hank Jones and drummer Billy Higgins. Drummond contributed two originals (including a tribute piece to Higgins) but otherwise the repertoire is comprised of jazz standards including "Things Ain't What They Used to Be," "Whisper Not," "Love Walked In" and "Imagination." Jones in particular is in excellent form on the fine modern mainstream set.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Aunque el bajista Ray Drummond es el líder de este trío, comparte el centro de atención de manera bastante uniforme con el pianista Hank Jones y el baterista Billy Higgins. Drummond contribuyó con dos originales (incluyendo una pieza de tributo a Higgins) pero por lo demás el repertorio está compuesto por estándares de jazz que incluyen "Things Ain't What They Used to Be", "Whisper Not", "Love Walked In" e "Imagination". Jones, en particular, está en excelente forma en el conjunto de la corriente principal moderna.
