"Herb has added to his extant library of several dozen compositions with these new tunes for the Magic Hands project.  Hearing the tracks causes me to fondly recall the many occasions I played bass with him, although the bass chair is now in the capable hands of Michael Ross, with whom I played piano in the Nathen Page Quartet. I'm honored that Herb says he wrote one of the tunes for me, Night Crawler (obviously a reference to my well-known crustacean obsession) Herb continues to develop his voice as a tune composer, as evidenced on this recording." - Richard Drexler
