Drawing from a timeless collection of standard favorites from the Cole Porter, Burt Bacharach / Hal David, George Gershwin, and Irving Berlin songbooks, master vocalist TIM BALLARD takes the listener on an unforgettable journey through 12 timeless, beautiful, and lush orchestrations on his album, "EASY DOES IT", produced and arranged by the incomparable Dave Zoller.

The twelve tracks explore the richness of the jazz idiom, including classic big band arrangements, as well as modern, smoother, and soulful hues, and all expertly showcase excellent solo work from noted North Texas musicians Randy Wensel (piano and trombone), Dave Zoller (piano), Pete Brewer (tenor sax), and Rod Booth (trumpet and fluegelhorn).

Recorded first on CD with premier digital technology in 1991 at Dallas' Big Time Audio Studios, Tim Ballard's "EASY DOES IT" is now being re-released at superior-quality mp3 encoding for the digital download generation. Slated for May 2008 release, in addition to a presence here on mp3.com, the album will also be available to worldwide jazz lovers on the 5 major Apple iTunes sites (US, UK/Europe, Australia, Canada, and Japan), as well as via Napster, GroupieTunes, eMusic, Amazon, and Real Networks' Rhapsody!
