They were recorded November 28/29, 1973 at Phillips Recording Studio on Madison Avenue. The sessions were engineered by Roland Janes in the summer of 2013...his last project. That was also at same studio where the tracks were recorded.

For someone like me who has never heard any of these recordings before it's an absolute treat. My favorite tracks are Lovin' Cajun Style, That Kind Of Fool(without band) and Ragged But Right. But the whole album is great. The man is a musical genius.

Or at least was a musical genius... Of course, he can still play very well, but the days when he could improvise the way he did in the 70s & 80s are sadly long gone.

Back in the 70s & 80s he could perform many of the same songs night after night yet they generally had very different arrangements & piano solos. These days even in the studio there's been very little truly outstanding piano playing on recent albums.

At the bottom of the CD text it says produced by Knox Phillips and JLL Ferriday Inc. Is this Jerry' s own company and was he even involved in this release? Ok, these are two questions, I admit.
