This cd was released in 1989, not 1986 as this site will for some reason tell you, Diane was releasing one album a year and 1986 yielded the standards masterwork "Timeless."  Cd mastering was coming into it's own around the time of this release and this album is no exception. It gives GRP a forum to show off its ability to remaster its back catalog and a glimpse of future releases. "The Collection" was actually a series done to anthologize GRP artists. Other entries in this series includes Dave Grusin, The Yellowjackets, and New York Voices.
