I'm usually super-skeptical of jazz 'tribute' albums, but this is one of the rare great ones, such a joyous, exciting, inventive hour! Bebop tunes can often seem sort of like throwaways, and just a formality before the solos, but the arrangements here show just how amazing Powell's tunes are in themselves, as well as how good his solos were - the soli on Celia is just incredibly cool.

Listening to this album again and it's as invigorating as it was when I'd first heard it. Thank you for a deeply appreciated late night sensorium. Andrew Garton
