Pianist Mike Holober, with Wolfgang Muthspiel, guitar, Tim Ries, tenor & soprano sax, Scott Colley, bass and Brian Blade, drums. Produced by Fred Hersch.

I really like the compositions by Mike Holober, seven of which are on this CD. He is a talented pianist, and has organized and arranged the music in an interesting way. Tim Ries is known for his stint with the Rolling Stones, and Scott Colley and Brian Blade are winners of the DownBeat TDWR ("Talent Deserving Wider Recognition") Critics Poll. I enjoyed hearing Wolfgang Muthspiel play last year at the Austrian Cultural Theater (see Notes from the Apple, July 2002), and he shines again within this group of musicians.
