This album, recorded the same two days as
Man Here Plays Fine Piano, is the equal of its companion. Five pieces are taken as piano solos by
Don Ewell (including
Jelly Roll Morton's "Chicago Breakdown" and "Just You, Just Me"), "Blue Turning Grey over You" has
Ewell joined by drummer
Minor Hall and the remaining five numbers are quartet explorations by
Ewell,
Hall, bassist
Pops Foster and the fine New Orleans-style clarinetist
Darnell Howard; of the latter tunes "Wolverine Blues" and "Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me" are most memorable.
