What a nice selection of music to satisfy any jazz enthusiast. Hank and company are so in sync and bring out the nuances of these familiar pieces with such elegance and refinement. Truly a pleasure to listen to such playing. The years of dedication to their craft brings something to this there just isn't any substitute for. These musicians truly are symbiotic in their playing, with never a trace of showboating. And the sound is truly an open window right into the studio. It's like you're there, even in standard redbook format. Thanks to Chesky for such sonic perfection.

Exquisite beauty that is heavenly. Christian Macbride has been blessed for being able to play with Hank Jones and Jimmy Cobb. He lives up to it.

The recording is superb. It captures the nuances of Hank Jones and reveals the sublime mastery of Jimmy Cobb.
