Does Don Thompson, bassist, pianist, and vibes player get the respect he deserves as one of Canada's top musicians? Probably not, but that's the way it often goes with jazz players. Anyway, a small nod of praise from this corner of the jazz world. All tracks recorded in Toronto, except those from the Country Place lp.
