Even when going out on an improvisatory limb, she never letsits essence slip away.” – The New York Times “Whatever imponderable talent it takes to stay at the top of one's game for almost six decades, as Person has, he still has it in abundance.” – All About Jazz Jazz vocalist Tierney Sutton joins forces with living legend tenor saxophonist Houston Person for an incredible musical dialogue that features a trio with very special guest drummer Lenny White, pianist Christian Jacob, and bassist Ricky Rodriguez. One of the most acclaimed of jazz vocalists, Sutton is renowned for her impeccable voice and imaginative treatments of standards, and she has received GRAMMY nominations for every project she has released in the last decade. The New York Times calls her “A serious jazz artist who takes the whole enterprise to another level.” And, JazzTimes says, “Houston Person does little things with each tune that reveal thought and planning, but the routines are fitting, not cute... And he is just as honest in his playing, which is free from phony effects and is never meretricious.”
