Recording[edit]


The album was recorded on November 11, 2005, at The Studio in New York.[2] It was produced by Tetsuo Hara and Todd Barkan.[2] The personnel are Harold Mabern (piano), Dwayne Burno (bass), and Willie Jones III (drums).[1]



Music and release[edit]


All of the compositions are by Harold Arlen.[1] Mabern commented that, "I've always studied him because his music is very bluesy. And you don't really have to do anything to his music but just go ahead and play it."[3] Jones uses brushes on most of the tracks.[1] "A Sleeping Bee" gets a "gospel-inflected soul-jazz treatment".[1] "This Time the Dream's on Me" has "a hip Latin vamp to introduce a soul-jazz-infused arrangement".[1] Mabern's arrangement of "Savannah" begins as a calypso and then shifts into hard bop.[1]Somewhere Over the Rainbow was released by Venus Records.[3]
