One for Junior

In the title for the album, "Junior" is a reference to painter Helen Mayer, a longtime friend of Jordan and Murphy.

In the liner notes both Jordan and Murphy recount stories and memories of Helen Mayer.

Both write about encounters at The Page Three nightclub in Greenwich Village owned by Jacquie Howe.

[5] Murphy and Jordan recorded the material for this release in September of 1991 at Sear Sound in New York City.

Pianist Kenny Barron, bassist Harvie Swartz, and drummer Ben Riley who had recorded with Jordan on Lost and Found (Muse, 1990) were enlisted for the backup trio.

[7] He said, "This CD is a real gem...On a typically intelligent and chance taking program there are many highlights including a humorous conversation between hipsters on "Where or When," a couple of ballad medleys and Jordan's witty lyrics on "The Bird"".

[7] Yanow includes the release in his list of some of the best individual Muse sets in his book The Jazz Singers: The Ultimate Guide.

[8] Colin Larkin assigns 4 stars to the album in The Virgin Encyclopedia of Popular Music.
