This is a good set, but at this late stage of her career, Mary Lou Williams mostly seemed to be coasting (she would die at age 71 five years later). If you really want to hear Williams at the peak of her creative powers, check out 'Signs of the Zodiac, Volume One' and 'Black Christ of the Andes'.

Buster Williams might not be a household name, but he played bass in Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi band, and he is fantastic on this album. Williams herself has a relaxed, fluid touch and endless melodic ideas. A great piano trio album.
