Earl Hines
is joined by singer
Marva Josie
for this late-'70s studio date, though the album essentially features
Josie
more prominently than the leader.
Hines
became impressed upon meeting the singer and recorded with her on a number of sessions between 1970 and 1981, though she seems to have dropped from sight since
' death.
Buck Clayton
arranged the title track, which begins with a little humorous banter between the pianist and the vocalist.
's efforts are an acquired taste, as she drags a bit in
"Just Squeeze Me,"
but swinging with authority in
