Evans met Zetterlund on a tour of Sweden and was "bowled over" by her EP recording of "Waltz for Debby" with a Swedish text titled "Monicas Vals."
Evans's manager, Helen Keane, set up a recording session for them at the end of the Swedish tour.
[2] Writing for AllMusic, music critic Thom Jurek wrote of the album: "The match is seemingly perfect.
There is an iciness on this recording, but it is difficult to decipher if it is in the performance or in the engineering where she seems to be way out in front of the band, when she was really in the middle of all the musicians in the studio.
The Swedish version of 'Waltz for Debby' is a true delight because Zetterlund's voice becomes another instrument, soloing over the top of Evans' stunning selection of comping chords.
