Journeyman vocalist Ernie Andrews soars on the momentum achieved on his previous disc, Girl Talk, with his third High Note release, Jump for Joy. Featuring his usual partners in crime, tenor saxophonist Houston Person, pianist Aaron Graves, bassist John Webber, and drummer Alvin Atkinson, Andrews showcases his superb sense of timing and regal "seen-it-all" style.

Jump for Joy indeed! ~ Matt Collar, Rovi
