Part of the German label's "Jazz Meets The World" series. The New York-bred Scott had been living in Asia for some 6 years before this album was made and during that time had influenced musicians from Thailand to Taiwan. The Indonesian musicians on this album had met Scott 6 months prior to this recording in Germany, when they had studied Jazz with him in Indonesia. MFSL then suggested they re-group for this album. The players are among the top musicians in Indonesia with backgrounds in traditional Gamelan music and rock and roll. Jack Lesmana is on Guitar while the drummer, Benny Mustafa played in the top beat group in the country. The pianist, Bubi Chen is the most respected musician in the group with a long resume. The selections are heavy on Gamelon songs (Most arranged by Chen) or originals and one Jazz standard - "Summertime" - among the 6 selections. A unique blend of "East meets West" and though some tracks have been released on compilations, the full album has never been released on CD.
