Haven't listened to that one in years. Perhaps time to take it off the shelf.

This one again. Such a great sounding disc, and the music is soothing and relaxing and invites one to think deeply believe it or not. An autumn of one's life disc. 

The system is sounding so good! Recent additions have been worthy ones.

Other than Torrie Zito, the only non-Finn is the Canadian drummer Terry Clarke.  Never travel without your own razor!!!

This is a classic I have multiple editions of. . . this one is the recent "Jazz Connoisseur" edition from Legacy (Sony Europe).
