Nighttown was recorded in 1992 (as stated in the review). He served as arranger and keyboardist for James Taylor (mentioned in the review). The Nighttown septet on the reviewed album included noted players such as Randy Brecker, Joe Lovano, Steve Turre, Marty Herlich (as named in the review), Dave Holland and Bill Stewart (all listed in the review).

The available DeBaser review praises Don Grolnick's album Nighttown for its cinematic atmosphere, top-level sidemen and tasteful arrangements.
