Houston Person is definitely a lucky so and so blessed with a fantastic tone on the tenor sax, which he's kept strong through decades of recording at a level that makes this record every bit of a gem as some of Houston's classics from years back! The album's done in a very classic style, too Houston's tenor out front, in a combo with Lafayette Harris on piano, Matthew Parris on bass, and Kenny Washington on drums augmented by the trumpet of Eddie Allen and guitar of Rodney Jones on nearly every one of the album's selections, both great players who round out the soulful spirit of the record in a great way. All the tunes are standards mostly ballads, but handled with that subtle swing that Houston can always bring to material like this tracks that include "Wonder Why", "Willow Weep For Me", "Song For A Rainbow", "Alone With Just My Dreams", "I Want To Talk About You", "I'm Just A Lucky So & So", and "Next Time You See Me".  © 1996-2019, Dusty Groove, Inc. https://www.dustygroove.com/item/924551/Houston-Person:I%27m-Just-A-Lucky-So-So
