According to the liner notes by Stewart Clay on a 2016 CD re-release, it was the only studio session in which Getz collaborated with Mose Allison, although some Mutual broadcasts from the Village Vanguard and the Red Hill Inn are included as bonus tracks of the re-release. "Although none of Allison's compositions are played here", wrote jazz critic Alun Morgan about The Soft Swing, "Mose's George Wallington-like solos add piquancy to the occasion.

Stan Seltzer's a great talent on the keys of the piano -- one who's clearly got some high-end training somewhere back in his career, but who also manages to keep things nice and lean in this small combo set! The album's the only one we've seen by Seltzer -- a well-recorded date for the Hi Fi label in LA -- with backing from Red Mitchell on bass and Frank Hudec on drums, and an overall sound that's rich in feeling, but never too flowery or overly emotive. Stan's got a great command of the piano -- flowing across the keys with a rich understanding of its tones -- and he brings out a sound here that's way more than just simple cocktail tinkling, and which almost has the evocative power of a deeper soundtrack score of the time. Titles include "A Foggy Day", "Crissy's Blues", "Speak Low", "Have You Met Miss Jones", "Let's Fall In Love", and "Easy To Love".
