Huge amounts of premature praises - but a result I would have expected with the outstanding talent
of Barbara. No evergreens, all songs composed by herself, a truly extraordiary list of famous
musicians let this album count to one of the highlights of jazz organ music. It starts just with
"A Cat Strikes Back" - will Jimmy Smith remember that certain meeting with Barbara a lot years ago
which ended not very harmonical? But now the cat who struck again will be struck back - ok, that's life!

Without any wrong nationalism: Barbara is the better of the two shooting stars.
