The title track is a highlight, just like in nearly all of Jimmy's Verve albums. Jimmy performs the mid-tempo rhythm with finesse, and Johnny Pate's accompaniment is characteristically deep and full of brass. Unfortunately, the rest of the album consists of versions of easy-listening standards that range from subpar to over the top. A curiosity in his discography, for some an "experiment" that never worked, and for others an interesting aside, one wonders what Smith really thought of this project after the fact, considering his far greater works.
