Barry thinks Live at the Jazz Workshop is in some ways the best thing he has ever done, because of the way he played together with Louis Hayes and Sam Jones. He likes it better than Barry Harris Plays Tadd Dameron, he thinks because it was recorded live, and he feels some engineers record better live than in the studio.
