On this album, one of Raymond Scott’s most popular electronic compositions, "Portofino," is interpreted by 20 artists, each version uniquely arranged, recorded and produced in an array of styles: surf guitar, whistling, electronica, chamber ensemble, minimalism, pop, rock guitar, and scat vocals. There’s even two song versions with original lyrics.

The album cover art was adapted from a 1962 unpublished painting entitled "Portofino" by noted artist/illustrator James (Jim) Flora; the original Flora painting is reproduced in the album's gatefold interior.
