Toshiko Akiyoshi(pianist/composer) and her then husband, alto saxophone master Charlie Mariano co-led this fine quartet which featured the recording debuts of bassist Gene Cherico, who worked with everybody from Paul Desmond and Stan Getz to Peggy Lee and Frank Sinatra and drummer Eddie Marshall who also has worked with John Handy,Bobby Hutcherson and everybody who played at San Francisco's legendary "Keystone Korner".Mariano is one of the most passionate voices of the alto saxophone and plays beautifully on this, their only recording as a band.
