Romping through George Gershwin tunes is quite appealing. However, this 1998 CD finds the two soloists (plus guitarist Herb Ellis, bassist Ray Brown and drummer Bobby White) surrounded by strings arranged by Russ Garcia. The arrangements are OK, but nothing special; the tempos are generally on the slower side. Although everyone plays well, the overall results are not too memorable and often a bit sleepy. "New" alternate takes of "I Wants to Stay Here" and "Someone to Watch Over Me" augment the original LP program.
