about

The concise info on the GM Records site says:

Circle the Line features the dynamic composer/performing talents of pianist Simon Nabatov and bassist Ed Schuller, propelled by the drumming of the legendary Paul Motian and the exotic Arto Tuncboyaci.
In addition to six original charts, the band offers compelling renditions of Billy Strayhorn's "Lush Life" and Mellin & Wood's "My One and Only Love."

It was my very first "real" recording session, and, in spite of being not so young, I was nervous as hell. Many thanks to Ed, Paul, Arto and Gunther for understanding and support.
