Suave, swinging, sublime and contemporary-sounding , including a great mix of standards (My One and Only Love, They Can’t Take That Away From Me), jazz classics (Love Theme from ‘Spartacus,’ Mr. Magic) and three new Ponder originals, this session finds Ponder still rooted in the good earth of straight-ahead blues and the after-hours groove. As prolific as Jimmy has been, all those who hear this record agree—this is his best effort to date.

Jimmy Ponder- guitar; John Hicks- piano; Dwayne Dolphin III- bass; Cecil Brooks III- drums.
