The CD offers Stafford's interpretations of the music of Billy Strayhorn, the famed composer of jazz standards including “Take The A Train" and “Lush Life" who served for years as Duke Ellington's arranger, auxiliary pianist, and virtual alter ego. It features Stafford's working quintet, with saxophonist Tim Warfield, pianist and arranger Bruce Barth, bassist Peter Washington and drummer Dana Hall, and was produced by the Grammy-winning bassist and composer John Clayton. - St. Louis Jazz Notes by Dean Minderman
