Karl Denson's tenor style is in the tradition of John Coltrane and Joe Henderson and sometimes resembles Ernie Watts, but without sounding like a copy of any of them.

Pee Wee Ellis adds his tenor for a bit of a jam on the blues "Blue-Eyed Peas," while Gust Tsilis on marimba is heard in a supportive role on "Banana Boy." The exploratory "Waltz for Leslie" and the lyrical ballad "Heart of the Wanderer" are most impressive; Karl Denson deserves much greater recognition. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
