From the back cover: Andre Previn and his trio are in league with Miss Carroll in her plan to show her many sides on this album. Diahann says, "I am trying my wings here, and would do it only with Previn at the piano." Previn can make a ballad sound even tenderer with his backgrounds; on two of them, he uses a celeste to good effect. He can make a blues seem bluer with his minor-key counterpoint. And his arrangements can make an up-tempo number, like It's All Right With Me, move with a driving rhythm; on this one, there's a fine string bass introduction. – Dick Kleiner (Record columnist for Newspaper Enterprise Assn.)
