"This trio session is a bit unusual for Fred Hersch because it doesn't feature any of his own works, but his inspired choice of music and interesting arrangements, make this trio session one worth acquiring. With bassistSteve LaSpinaand drummerJeff Hirschfield, Hersch explores such classic jazz compositions asWayne Shorter's Black Nile, played with fire, the up-tempoSam Jones blues Unit Seven, andMiles Davis' All Blues, which is given a swirling piano introduction in a brisk arrangement. Hersch also caressesCole Porter's 's masterful ballad Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye." - AllMusic: Ken Dryden
