"Kenny Wheeler and I met for the first time in 1997 on a concert stage—a dream come true! Now, with this CD, a dream within a dream becomes reality: an entire track list of my songs performed by Wheeler himself; not to mention the fact that the other two personnel, Marc Johnson and Joey Baron, are certainly not just any two musicians, but two extraordinary artists with whom, over the past two decades, I have shared some of the most emotional moments of my musical life. In brief, for various reasons this album is something absolutely unique—something that, as the title suggests, has never happened before." (E. Pieranunzi)
