Standards is an album by jazz group The Three Sounds collecting performances recorded in 1959 and 1962 and originally released on the Blue Note label in 1998.
[1][2] The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow stated: "The fact that the music is not in general as funky as usual may be why producer Alfred Lion did not release with the sessions when they were recorded.
[3] On All About Jazz, C. Michael Bailey said "Standards is full of Gene Harris' good-natured, hand-over-hand rolling blues playing.
... Harris is the star supported ably by Simpkins and Dowdy.
While being the premier jazz-blues pianist, Harris' music is never dark or sinister.
