Chris Cheek, affermato tenor sassofonista, accompagnato per l'occasione da Brad Mehldau e dal suo trio. Registrato 2005.

Nuovo album per il jazzista di colore. Christian Scott è il miglior nuovo trombettiosta jazz in scena in questo periodo. Qui lavora con Milton Fletcher, Matthew Stevens, Kris Funn e Jamire Williams. Il trombettista esegue le sue composizioni ed una cover di Eraser di Thom Yorke.

Madeleine Peyroux, una delle migliori interpreti nella scena soft jazz attuale, torna a fare quello che le riesce meglio: interpretare alla sua maniera i grandi della musica. Da Ray Charles a Leonard Cohen a Randy Newman. Di Charles poi interpreta un classico del 1962, Modern Sounds in Country & Western Music. La produzione accurata di Larry Klein è la ciliegina sulla torta.
