REVIEW
Recorded and photographed with skill and none of the visual gimmicks that often mar jazz videos… the playing is superb. After years of working together, Walton, Higgins and Carter think and breathe as one, forming a dream rhythm section. Soloing is at a high level, and the camera angles let the viewer experience the nature of the work. --Doug Ramsey, JazzTimes Magazine

Farmer's flugelhorn floats through a set of six soft bop tunes as if on a cloud… This is one you'll want to play repeatedly. --The Denver Post

An example of Farmer's immense talent… Farmer played with a dignity yet get-into-your-bones style that made his work a splendid demonstration of taste and sound. Every note he played danced across a listener's ear… The most distinctive thing about this group was their relaxed demeanor and their ability to swing hard, but with an almost dainty air… Walton certainly would make the short list of most avid jazz piano devotees… his powerful chords laid down by all ten fingers can gain the attention of everyone in the room… A steady force, Higgins keeps the others marching in near-perfect tempos. His solo work is a drummers dream: solid, fancy, but not too blustery… Carter's offering, 'A Theme in ¾' combines a touch of humor with a smidgen of pretty melody. The bassist's solo edges towards the incredible… It's a doozy. --Bob Powers, All About Jazz
