I remember how hard it always was to get the pads to stay in place. Too bad they didn't apply the magnetism principle there. :P

Cover design by "Guldi, Trivas/Tri-Arts."

"To call Mary Lou Williams the greatest woman pianist, arranger, and composer in present-day popular music is easy-- and accurate. But this qualified superlative seriously minimizes the importance of Miss Williams as an artist, for her talents easily override arbitrary barriers of sex and, indeed, of time..." -- Mike Butcher, from the writing on the back cover.

Duke Ellington put it more succinctly: "She is soul on soul." She was.
