His band featured Ray Brown and Herb Ellis and was one of the top working groups in jazz for many years. "Tenderly" is the third album that Peterson approved for release on Justin Time's' "Just a Memory" imprint.

The parent label has also released a reissue of singer Carmen Lundy's long out-of-print debut. "Good Morning Kiss" was first released on Blackhawk in 1985. The ensemble includes Jon Faddis, Steve Turre, Bobby Watson, Cecil Bridgewater, Mayra Casales, Rene McLean, Victor Lewis, and her brother, the fine bassist Curtis Lundy.

Soul Note/Black Saint has released a collaborative recording by singer Judi Silvano and pianist Mal Waldron. It's called "Riding a Zephyr." Silvano joins a long list of singers with whom Waldron has collaborated. They include Billie Holiday, Etta Jones, Jeanne Lee and Abbey Lincoln.
