"takes a little longer to get into than reading writing and the maths, but it's ultimately the better of the two albums. a little more adult. a little less cutesy. musically, more confident. more mature. less snark. more romance."  Reply

"Good but the scatting gets a bit annoying, but the absolutely brilliant version of, Angel eyes, is worth the price of admission alone. Although, I'd rather hear a sax or a trumpet instead of Ella's vocal improvisations, it's still good if you can get past them."  Reply

"The awesome power of the fully operational Messengers on display on this killer album. Lee Morgan had become an uncontainable monster by this point and is just ridiculously good here.
