“This somewhat obscure date by the great jazz harmonica player Toots Thielemans also features the leader playing some fine guitar (most notably on ‘Lonesome Road’) and taking one of his first whistling solos on ‘Brother John’. With pianist Ray Bryant, bassist Tommy Bryant and drummer Oliver Jackson completing the quartet, Thielemans is in excellent form introducing two of his originals and jamming such tunes as ‘You Are My Sunshine’, ‘Nuages’ and ‘Confirmation’. The music on this enjoyable Signature session is currently out of print.” (Scott Yanow)
