This well-rounded set gives listeners a good look at the adventurous music of Betty Carter.

For this LP, she is joined by one of two rhythm sections (with either Benny Green or Stephen Scott on piano) and, on four of the nine songs, tenor saxophonist Don Braden.

Carter twists and turns some familiar songs (such as "The Man I Love," "Imagination" and "The Good Life") along with a variety of lesser-known material including two songs of her own.

Consistently unpredictable Betty Carter's recordings are always quite stimulating.

Personnel:
Betty Carter (vocals);
Don Braden (tenor saxophone);
Stephen Scott, Benny Green (piano);
Michael Bowie, Ira Coleman (bass);
Winard Harper, Lewis Nash, Troy Davis (drums).
