“Ken Peplowski has been one of the most consistent performers in the “new mainstream” movement of the 1990s. Whether playing his fluent clarinet or warm tenor, Peplowski sounds quite comfortable as a creative swing player. As usual, this date with pianist Ben Aronov, guitarist Frank Vignola, bassist Murray Wall and drummer Tom Helito includes a couple more recent tunes (including Thelonious Monk’s “Evidence” and originals by Aronov and Vignola), but it is the swing standards (such as “The One I Love Belongs to Somebody Else,” “Evenin’,” and “I Thought About You”) that are most memorable” – Scott Yanow/AllMusic.
