- Although many jazz fans don't like the arranged cello section that appears throughout this album, I personally think it adds much to the music of the basic band. No it really isn't 'elevator music'.
I've had this album on vinyl LP since it was released around early 1979 and waited for many years for a CD release. Eventually it was released on CD then very quickly went out of print, which is why i'm putting this album up here.
Of the 6 tracks there's the title track, which is a version of the ballad by Leon Russell, and still yet another version of the standard 'Someday My Prince Will Come'. But the remaining 4 tracks are all originals composed by Carter. Carter's originals are always welcome for me and the thing that I really focus on when hearing a Carter album for the first time. And the talented musicians supporting Ron probably need no introduction.
1)"Song For You"(Leon Russell) (0:00)
2)"El Ojo De Dios"(Ron Carter) (4:48)
3)"A Quiet Place"(Ron Carter) (11:23)
4)"Good Time"(Ron Carter) (17:37)
5)"Someday My Prince Will Come"(Churchill/Morey) (24:36)
6)"N.O. Blues"(Ron Carter) (29:39)

Ron's 85th birthday is coming up and he's one of the most vibrant& kindest humans I've ever met.
Check out his npr tiny desk. The man still has it
Thanks mate, just discovered npr and didn't know Ron had performed.. cheers
Wow!!!! I knew Ron can make it talk, nut didn't know he can make it sing!
Particularly liked A Quiet Place and N.O. Blues. Thank you, Cosmic Pickle.
You're welcome-enjoy! Yes, 'A Quiet Place' is a favorite of mine as well....
What a tone!
You blast genies, Ron Carter. Wish you best⚘🍀
Just wonderful. Happy birthday. You are amazing.
I think this is a great album. So many session legends on this under-rated album.
I agree Nigel-i've loved this album pretty much since it first came out and waited for the CD reissue for years. Always glad to discover someone else who appreciates it as well.

Enjoy the concert!
It's great! Thanks a Lot!! From BRAZIL!!!
You're welcome-Enjoy the music!
My favorite D.Hatawhay song by Mr Ron "took-over-the-business" Carter. Even better than what I could ask for.
Leon Russell wrote it; Donnie covered it.
@@patrickclark1308 I stand corrected!
旭日小綬章 おめでとうございます！ 音がめちゃくちゃ渋くて耳心地のいい曲ですね

Thought this was Mos def for a split second
Love this cut!
That was when jazz was like politics or Religions we talk about it we stand for it !!!
I've come to respect your taste in music more and more, and it give me a fuller appreciation of other types of music at the same time. Thanks G.
Thank you buddy-I really appreciate that...
THANK YOU

That piccolo bass is great, this should be a good relaxing album today as I'm horribly ill so I needed the boost. Thanks for posting this and have a great weekend
You're welcome-I do hope you enjoy it-feel better!

Glad that you like it buddy-but there's no electric bass guitar here, it's all upright bass and acoustic 'piccolo' bass, which is an acoustic upright bass that's tuned to a higher octave than the standard upright bass...
sweet! Thank you.
I'm glad you're enjoy this one Paul....it's always nice to see i'm not the only one!
Wow
Bom demais!
beautiful music
wish you a pleasant weekend
friendly regards Frank
Enjoy Frank! Have a great weekend yourself
