All the tracks are Weston originals and, as indicated in the LP's liner notes by Langston Hughes, the album was inspired by Weston's children Niles and Pamela, who are directly referenced in "Little Niles" and "Pam's Waltz" and feature in the cover photograph. As Hughes notes of the compositions, "All in three-quarter time, these charming little vignettes escape rigidity of beat by a fluid flow of counter-rhythms and melodies, one against another, that brings continuous delight."[2] Reception{{Album ratings| rev1 = Allmusic | rev1Score = {{rating|4.5|5}}[3] | rev2 = The Rolling Stone Jazz Record Guide | rev2Score = {{rating|5|5}}[3] }}Allmusic awarded the album 4½ stars, with the review by Scott Yanow stating: "Overall the music is advanced bop with a strong nod toward African music. Well worth searching for".[4] Track listingAll compositions by Randy Weston
