This 1992 CD is a throwback to Harry Connick's earlier sets for it mostly features the pianist-vocalist on a solo set of standards. Ellis Marsalis drops by to back Connick's vocal on "Stardust," Connick accompanies Johnny Adams' singing on "Lazybones," and "On the Atchison, Topeka and the Santa Fe" is a trio outing with tenor saxophonist Ned Goold and bassist Ray Brown. Otherwise it is all Connick and he sounds in good form on such tunes as "Music, Maestro, Please," "On the Street Where You Live," "After You've Gone" and "Muskrat Ramble." It is a pity that Connick has not continued in this direction. ~ Scott Yanow

Professional Reviews

Entertainment Weekly (11/27/92, p.76) - "...Thoroughly conscientious and meticulous...casually intimate...the revelation is, he's pretty damn good at what he does, which happens to be pretty damn difficult..." - Rating: B+

Stereo Review (3/93, p.86) - "...proves that the young performer deserves his huge success. It alternates his genially throaty, jazz-inflected vocals, mostly accompanied by piano, with chipper instrumental solos..."
