5 stars Exceptional!
May be Dave's best offering. Exceptional solo piano from start to finish. Like fine wine, Mr. McKenna keeps getting better.

2 stars Wha' Happened, Dave?
I played this CD last night after not having heard it in a long time and it was agonizing to listen to this choppy, dysfunctional playing by one of my favorite jazz pianists. McKenna sounds angry, hostile, disoriented, often as if he's not sure of what he's going to do next.

Why was it recorded let alone released? Contractural obligation? For McKenna at his best listen to "Giant Strides" or "Left-Handed Complement" or just about anything but "Easy Street". My copy is in my resale pile.
