This album, released in 1982 by the high-quality Danish jazz label SteepleChase, features the renowned American pianist Duke Jordan. Jordan honed his skills under the likes of Coleman Hawkins, Charlie Parker, and Art Farmer, and he graced the jazz scene from the 1950s onwards alongside Sonny Stitt and Stan Getz. On this album, he forms a trio with Danish bassist Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen and American drummer Billy Hart, who is known for his sessions with many musicians including Joseph Bonner. The album consists almost entirely of original scores by Jordan, offering a delightful listening experience with piano performances that are both light and richly textured. This is a masterpiece that allows listeners to fully appreciate the quality of Jordan's playing.
