ECM seems to be positioning this as a companion piece to My Melody at Night, With You. Keith even says at the end of his notes "Call your wife or husband or lover in late at night and sit down and listen. These are great love songs played by players who are trying, mostly, to keep the message intact. I hope you can hear it the way we did."
I find this an interesting statement in that it's something that I've never heard him do before, usually it speaks for itself, actually he kind of did the same thing on the London/Paris record discussing his personal life, it's as if he's in therapy or god forbid mellowing.
I'm tremendously excited that he's doing something other than Trio/Solo recordings, but especially because it's with a fine Iowa boy, (like me) Charlie Haden.
