With 12 strings and three "background" vocalists sometimes being utilized in keyboardist
Onaje Allen Gumbs' arrangements, this effort by bassist
Buster Williams is often somewhat commercial. However the guest spots by pianist
Kenny Barron, altoist
Hank Crawford, flutist
Hubert Laws and trumpeter
Eddie Henderson are generally worthwhile and the material (four group originals plus "Ain't Misbehavin'" and "Betcha By Golly, Wow") is stronger than expected. In any case, this long out-of-print album will be a difficult one to locate. ~ Scott Yanow
