Album Notes & Community Reviews

Continuing to bridge the worlds of sophisticated modern jazz and rural blues, Mose Allison delivers another effortlessly cool trio session. His sardonic, relaxed vocal delivery perfectly complements his percussive, heavily syncopated piano work, creating a sound that deeply resonated with the burgeoning 1960s counterculture.
