Amazon.com: The septet that appears on The American Soul is built upon the trio, with three tracks featuring the threesome, including the opener "Who Cares," "Liza," and the rarity "I Was So Young (You Were So Beautiful)." (Charlap also renders the closer, "Soon," as an unaccompanied piano solo, in effect putting his signature on the end of the recording.) The remaining six tracks feature various members of the four-horn frontline recruited for this album, an astounding collection of musicians spanning several generations, including Nicholas Payton on trumpet, Slide Hampton on trombone, Phil Woods on alto saxophone, and Frank Wess on tenor saxophone.

Bill Charlap: piano
Peter Washington: bass
Kenny Washington: drums
