She was the host of Piano Jazz on NPR from 1978-2001 showcasing countless luminaries including Elvis Costello, Linda Ronstadt, Stephen Sondheim, Tony Bennett and countless others. She was awarded a lifetime achievement Grammy, designated a jazz master by the National Endowment for the Arts, appointed an officer to the Order of the British Empire (OBE) and an inductee into the National Radio Hall of Fame. This never before released performance was recorded at the Peninsula library in Lawrence on Long Island in New York on December 10, 1972, before a crowd of fans and students for a Sunday afternoon concert. The 18-track set features McPartland with Rusty Gilder on bass and Joe Corsello on drums playing various standards including "Stella by Starlight", "A Night In Tunisia" and "Satin Doll" along with songs of the moment like "Fire & Rain", "Raindrops Keep Fallin on My Head" and "The Summer of '42 Theme".
