it doesn't get any better than this, elegant and smooth, classy and sweet, profound and easy, complex and timeless. get this: you will re-listen often. for superb background music, for mood music, this is it. benny was a true genius, and this set is at a perfect apex of his talents. can't recommend it any higher than to say it could be played up on the space station someday, along with mozart, the beatles, miles, bob dylan, duke ellington, elvis, louis armstrong....among the best art that the human race has ever created.

A wonderful CD! It's made up of recordings from the early to mid fifties with some stellar support from the likes of Dizzy, Roy Eldridge, and Oscar P. Definitely one of the best Carter albums I've come across.
