At Thanksgiving 1992, Danny was visiting his brother David in Washington DC, when he heard the news that Jazz Great Dizzy Gillespie was seriously ill. Danny immediately acting on impulse made a pilgrimage to the front door of this great architect of Be-Bop in Englewood NJ. Diz had once sat with Danny at a backstage piano patiently explaining the half/whole tone scale in the context of his classic tune, Night In Tunisia. After paying his respects to Diz and family, Danny decided to check out Rudy Van Gelders recording studio where so many great Jazz records were made for Bluenote Prestige and many other record labels.

Thus it transpired that in March of 1993, Danny returned to Rudy Van Gelders to record this LP, featuring Sam Yahel on Hammond B3 organ (the very same organ played by Jimmy Smith, Brother Jack McDuff, Groove Holmes and Larry Young). Also on board were Charles Ruggiero, drums (Chuck Mangione) and last but not least, tenor man Ari Ambrose (Stanley Turrentine, Steely Dan). Ari is the son of former Blues Doctor drummer Adam Ambrose (please see DA Legacy Vol 1).

This wonderful LP was cut absolutely live to digital 2 track on March 2nd and 3rd 1993. It was entirely engineered and mastered by the Late Great Legendary Rudy Van Gelder.
