Reviews

All Music Guide – Review – copyright

As with Dave Brubeck's Richard Rodgers set (My Favorite Things), his tribute to composer Matt Dennis was recorded partly in 1962 with the remainder three years later. Each of these seven standards (which include "Let's Get Away from It All," "Violets for Your Furs" and "Will You Still Be Mine?") are given superior and swinging treatments with fine solos from Brubeck and altoist Paul Desmond.
