Trumpeter Donald Byrd took a brief vacation from Blue Note to record this one album for Verve. The music is mostly pretty forgettable despite such top sidemen as tenors Stanley Turrentine and Jimmy Heath, pianist Herbie Hancock, and guitarist Kenny Burrell. Byrd mostly sticks to current pop tunes, and most of the songs utilize a rather average vocal group listed as "The Donald Byrd Singers." The arrangements by Claus Ogerman, Byrd, and Hancock are unimaginative and these renditions of "House of the Rising Sun," "My Babe," and a few of Hancock's originals are quite forgettable. A lesser effort.
