In this set of nine originals, the touch is clearly evident: happy, strong melodies; groovin' beats; 's deft, deliberate, piano comping and boppin' leads; and the joyful playing of saxophonist and trumpeter , which seems to be more intense in the context of 's unmistakable compositions. The CD's title is in reference to the album's content (and that the listener has to go along with 's adoration in a nonsexist way toward women). Some might be offended by the title but it's just the name of a bouncy, mainstream ditty that is so well known for writing. There are some cliches that pop up in old numbers that he seems to have rewritten. Phrases of creep into the urgent first movement of and his typical groove is extant in the opener and the closer But his tunefully familiar, head-noddin' original is a vital as ever, and sounds pretty fresh compared to some of the trite being reprocessed this past decade. 's light, spare, style -- particularly when he uses his left hand in tandem with 's bass -- is a sound for sore ears, one that has a universal, timeless appeal, crossing generational and commercial barriers. This is well-played music, a specialty has envisioned and realized through the bulk of his career. Highly recommended. ~ Michael G. Nastos
