This was Deane's first album to contain some of his own compositions. According to Montrealer, Bruce Croll, Deane Nesbitt, Jr. plays grand piano, honky-tonk polyphonic synthesizer and organ (put through an echo chamber to simulate the sound of strings) " with a unique style and unparalleled sensitivity… The whole is a varied recording of sweeping range from piano solo to electronic orchestra, tremendously entertaining and styled for ears which have long wondered to where this kind of music had vanished.” |
