If you want soft, sensual bedroom music this recording rates right up there with the best jazz ballad cd's out there. Carter's version of 'Round Midnight done on the baritone sax is definitive. His self-penned The Intimacy of My Woman's Beautiful Eyes and Deep Throat Blues are marvelously romantic tunes, and where else will you find an updated version of a Sun Ra ballad (You Never Told Me That You Care)? His rich tone is like a soundtrack that draws you in seductively and does not let go until the final note is in the air. The only oddity in this otherwise perfect program is the rip roaring Don Byas tune 1944 Stomp, an excellent tune in it's own right, but a bit out of place with all the other masterful ballad treatments. James Carter consistently delivers high quality and very individualized performances, and this cd is the high point in my opinion thus far of an outstanding discography. Carter is a man on a mission to incorporate the best of jazz history with a modern sensibility. While he sometimes seems to not receive the acclaim he so richly deserves, I defy anyone to listen to his work on this recording and come away with anything but the highest praise for this multi-talented, multi-horn playing wonder.
