    Not quite as coherent as Cherry's masterful Art Deco album, but still has some memorable moments. The one feature that bothered me most was the use of vocals on some tracks, which I though was a distraction in most cases. Given that there are some nifty tracks on this album, highlighted by "Pettiford Bridge" and "Until The Rain Comes".
