Master bass player Ray Brown turned his attention to the cello on this 1960 recording. "I think it's a wonderful means of expression because it contains the lower range of a guitar and the higher range of a bass", Brown said of his second instrument, "It allows you to create elaborately and fast". This album showcases a rarely heard aspect of Ray Brown's artistry. Featuring Ray Brown, Don Fagerquist, Harry Betts, Jack Cave, Bob Cooper, Med Flory, Bill Hood, Paul Horn, Jimmy Rowles, Joe Mondragon, Dick Shanahan, Russ Garcia.
