An exceptional piece of jazz featuring an original artist and a band of great quality. The arrangement is wonderful and Professor Jim Dapogny's piano playing - on a 1905 Baldwin Concert Grand - is a delight. There are some jazz performances that transcend any adjective. This is a brilliant CD and Bonnie Raitt appears of several tracks including the well known Woman Be Wise. Enjoy.
