Mainstream jazz with an easy sound, reuniting pianist Miller with the band he founded 15 years go. (He's spent the last 7 years doing sideman gigs.)
Miller's adept and not flashy. Overally, this has a casual and friendly feel. It's good but a little slick -- the soprano sax (Steve Wilson) and vibes (Steve Nelson) get a bit cheesy at times.
1- Bright and cool midtempo.
2*- Midtempo, mellow, Vibes solo.
3*- Perky
4- Mellow
5**- Slow/mid with nicely mysterious chords, a coolly dark groove
6- Slow, delicate, cheesy
7- Bright; mostly a drum solo
8- Slow, romantic trio piece
9*- Shuffling midtempo
10- Mildly Latin. Upbeat; Miller turns to more bluesy chords in his solo.
