Eddie Higgins is joined by Scott Hamilton and Ken Peplowski for this set of seven tunes which include "Mood Indigo" and "I Got It Bad (And That Ain't Good)".
Through his numerous releases from Venus Records, Eddie Higgins has firmly established his position as one of the most celebrated jazz pianists in Japan. For this album, which was released in 2006 in its original form, Higgins was paired with two veteran horn players who share his mature, straight-ahead sensibilities: Scott Hamilton and Ken Peplowski. Songs were selected based on requests from readers of the Swing Journal.
