From the back cover: Don Elliott who plays these fine rhythms is a young man of Manhattan who received his first musical instruction on the piano. One of the first and foremost exponents of the Modern Jazz Piano, Don searched for an instrument that could more fully respond to his manner of musical expression. Happily, he found it in the first truly "modern" instrument – the Electronic Organ.

Forming the Diatonic 4, Don developed and enlarged upon exacting musical experiments and interpretations. This present record is the first of a series to be released by Promenade which will eventually be a complete library of exciting Organ Songs – a library which will include, classical thematic, rhythm and other basic musical styles.
