The emphasis on this fine LP is on
John Lewis' piano playing. Taking time off from
the Modern Jazz Quartet and his orchestral writing,
Lewis performs five standards plus two of his originals ("Delaunay's Dilemma" and "Love Me") in a trio with drummer
Connie Kay and either
George Duvivier or
Percy Heath on bass. A master at playing blues,
Lewis' versatility and solid sense of swing can be heard on such songs as his two originals as well as "Now's the Time," "Yesterdays," and "September Song."
