"The jazz faithful need no introduction to the genius of Ruby Braff. His unique sound, with its remarkable command of the low register, its soaring and descending leaps, blazing runs and its mixture of playful enthusiasm and thoughtful lyricism, was thrilling two decades ago and it is intact today, with an added richness that has come with maturity. Fiddles have never kept better company."
—Charles Champlin, jazz critic and retired Arts Editor of the Los Angeles Times.
