Bass – George Mraz (tracks: 1 to 3,5 to 10); Drums – Elvin Jones; Tenor Saxophone – Javon Jackson (tracks: 1,2,5,6,8,10), Joshua Redman (tracks: 1 to 3,5,6,8,10); Trumpet – Nicholas Payton (tracks: 1,2,5 to 8,10). Recorded by Rudy Van Gelder at Van Gelder Studios, Englewood Cliffs, N.J. on April 20&21, 1992.
Although this superior set features three of the top Young Lions (tenors Joshua Redman and Javon Jackson and trumpeter Nicholas Payton), along with the fine bassist George Mraz, drummer Elvin Jones, 64 at the time, sounds like the youngest member of the group. The well-rounded CD has individual features for Redman ("Angel Eyes"), Payton ("Body and Soul") and Mraz ("My Romance"), along with the leader (the unaccompanied drum solo "Ding-A-Ling-A-Ling"), and has consistently inspired playing from all of the musicians. An excellent effort. ~Scott Yanow
