Kenny Drew gets a spot of great guest help here the legendary Toots Thieleman on guitar and harmonica joining a core trio that also includes Niel Henning Orsted Pedersen on bass and Ed Thigpen on drums! Toots only shows up on two of the album's eight tracks, but really makes them sparkle adding a sweet dose of color to the already great, well-honed rhythms of the group. 

Titles include "Journey's End Blues", "Easy Flight", "Take The A Train", "Concierto E Aranjuez", and "Trippin".  https://www.dustygroove.com/item/61889
