Holly Hofmann's seventh CD as a leader was recorded during an extended live engagement at Birdland, with frequent collaborators Bill Cunliffe on piano and Victor Lewis on drums, as well as a special guest, bassist Ray Brown. The diverse program includes the bassist's upbeat "Brown Bossa," a lyrical treatment of Mal Waldron's "Soul Eyes," creative approaches to Duke Ellington's "Mood Indigo" and "In a Sentimental Mood" (the latter a superb duet by Hofmann and Brown), and a turbocharged take of Oscar Pettiford's hard bop classic "Bohemia After Dark."
