'While in Pass Manchac' features Scott Wendholt from the Vanguard Jazz Orchestra and Pillow on alto. 'Charlotte and Evan' features Gary Versace on piano and Pillow on alto. 'Don't Explain' is a tour de force for the one and only Vic Juris on guitar. Hermeto Pascoal's 'Bebe' is one of his most well known compositions, practically a Brazilian standard. It's given a slower treatment here, featuring Gary Versace on accordion, Pillow on clarinet and the percussion and drumming of Rogerio Boccato and Rich Thompson. Williams' 'Pee Wee' first appeared on Miles Davis' 'Sorcerer', from 1967, a period where Wayne Shorter supplied most of the compositions for the group. This one features Vic Juris on guitar and Pillow on alto flute. 'Oska T' is one of Monk's most underperformed pieces. Here Scott Wendholt and Alan Ferber stretch out and show how versatile they are. 'Abschied, Ray' features Gary Versace, and finally 'Atchafalaya Fiction' features Alan Ferber who shows why he is in such demand and Gary Versace again demonstrates his remarkable talents.
