This posthumous CD is novel because it features Joe Pass exclusively on acoustic
guitar, and it is obvious that he enjoyed every minute of these sessions. The
Shadow of Your Smile is no longer easy listening fodder, as Pass turns it into a
miniature master class in swing. Star Eyes is accented by the soft squeaks of
Pass fingers gently weaving their intricate magic. Most of the works of Joe Pass
tended to be improvised blues, so the title track is an exception -- a simple
yet elegant ballad written for his wife. Blues for Angel highlights his
matchless mastery of slow blues. The boppish blues Satellite Village is a
perfect closer. The good news is that there are several more unreleased sessions
by Joe Pass that will follow this superb collection.~Ken Dryden
