Sequel to SCS 1089 “Divine Gemini” recorded 1977 in New York to critical acclaims: “...music of extreme sophistication yet perfect lucidity...A Zen-like tranquillity pervades this album of duets with another virtuoso Richard Davis...” (R.W. Melody Maker) “...an important vibes record.” (Chris Sheridan, Jazz Journal) “...quite an achievement, balancing fantasy and friction with grace as a fulcrum...calm, lucid, colorful, and captivating...” (Art Lange, CODA) Walt Dickerson (1928 – 2008) was called “... without question, the most creative vibraharpist in the world today, and perhaps one of the outstanding improvisers of the era.” (Melody Maker) A dominating bassists of the 60s and 70s Richard Davis (b.1930) continues to be active in both performing and teaching at University of Wisconsin – Madison.

Here is a classic example of SteepleChase’s “re-discovery” endeavour. This is Miss Shirley Horn’s first recording on SteepleChase after a long absence from the recording studio. Lazy Afternoon turned out to be a tremendous success critically and commercially and together with her three subsequent releases on the label (All Night Long - SCCD 31157, Viloets For Your Furs - SCCD 31164, Garden Of The Blues - SCCD 31203) had firmly established her as a major artist. “One of the greatest jazz singers and singer-pianists in years...”(Jazz Journal International)
