From the back cover: Al Nevins recruited Sid Ramin, arranger extraordinary, and planned this project step by step. Sid Ramin, well seasoned by years of conjuring the spectacular scores of the Milton Berle TV shows and many other choice assignments, delivered the Three Suns with a new sound. The taste, talent and style remained the same, however – the addition was a to be only one more person with a tremendous calling – the pipe organ. One of New York's largest theaters was then recruited to cage the nightly pipe organ with the Three Suns. Take a few standards, sprinkle with brightness, add a fresh face and another enchanting album is completed.

Ray Bohr has excellent on the pipe organ and presented a new friend with the Three Suns. Twelve arrangements, delightfully planned by Sid Ramin, are coupled on one disc to provide an experience after dark for the most discriminating. – Noel R. Kramer
