Instructions for Enjoying: Insert. Play. Repeat.
I've been steadily adding to my jazz CD collection over the last year, trying to build a broad, diversified, interesting and enjoyable collection to compliment my lifestyle and my new found interest in jazz. This CD was one of the first I bought, and I just keep going back to it. After tripping out on something avant garde like Out to Lunch or getting sonically smacked over the head with "jazz" like The Big Gundown: John Zorn Plays the Music of Ennio Morricone, I like to be able to come back to something sublime and truly "jazzy". So, I can put on some Bill Evans, or maybe even some Miles, but Billy is the one that always takes me where I want to be. Clean, crisp chops, straight-to-the-point approach, true-to-the-music renderings - this is my image of what jazz is supposed to be. I consider this a great album to add to any jazz collection and a "must have" for any jazz piano fan. (And if you really want to hear Billy rip it up, I suggest getting 1969: All-Star White House Tribute. He plays on a couple of songs, but his "It Don't Mean a Thing..." is brilliant.)
jazz as its supposed to be
This is classic material as jazz is supposed to be: not all hyped up with excessive instruments, vocals, or extraneous filler (i call mixed junk). If you want nice realxing jazz (cocktail music!) than I fully recomend this CD.
