Bassist Ray Brown’s 1985 trio (featuring pianist Gene Harris and drummer Mickey Roker) is heard in fine form throughout this swinging set. In addition to five standards and Brown’s own blues “Captain Bill,” there are a couple of unlikely but successful selections: Tyree Glenn’s “How Could You Do a Thing Like This to Me” and “Love Me Tender.” Although there is actually only one blues among the eight numbers, Gene Harris infuses all of the selections with the feeling of the blues and consistently steals the show (Scott Yanow/AllMusic).
