Description:

The artwork on the cover of the album is dark and beautiful. This album is one of the best works that the famous pianist Kenny Drew left to Steeplechase. The members are Niels-Henning Elsted Pedersen on bass and Albert Heath on drums. Drew and Pedersen played together on many Steeplechase leader albums and remained good friends until his death. The album opens with "Run Away," which features an impressive call-and-response intro by the two. The title tune, a profound original by Drew, is followed by "All Blues" by Miles Davis, "A Felicidade" by Antonio Carlos Jobim, and a variety of other songs, all performed with aggressive virtuosity.
