This double album is mostly recommended to lovers of bass solos. With Ron Carter functioning as the main soloist on piccolo bass, only the solos of pianist Kenny Barron offer a bit of contrast. Bassist Buster Williams and drummer Ben Riley, who complete the quartet, are mostly featured in support. These performances, which are well-played, are almost all quite long, so listeners who prefer more variety in their music are advised to look elsewhere. ~ Scott Yanow https://www.allmusic.com/album/piccolo-mw0000244335

Can it be that you great people never rest -- not even on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day? Once again, I can only express by deep indebtedness. And best wishes of course for this year just now starting. Look forward to giving this Ron Carter album a listen later on. Ron Carter and Kenny Baron together! Wow! That's going to be good. Confess I would probably like the album better without the percussion. But I know that Ben Riley used to back up Monk and other greats of the era, so I am brimming with appropriate start-of-the-year optimism. Thanks again for so much great music day after day. Best to all from here under the Southern Hemisphere sun,
