Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars An Appropriate Title...........2002-09-06

for this cd because its simply a great compilation of this consistently entertaining group during its first stint on the Blue Note label (1958-1962). There are 13 selections covering 8 albums for this period......good stuff all the way. Good mainstream jazz with a blues tinge from a very tight group!

It's interesting to hear one of the great soul and blues pianists at this early stage of his career. You hear the influence of Oscar Peterson on the first selection, "Bobby" and a strong resemblance to Red Garland throughout with a touch of Erroll Garner for good measure. He already had that great touch with a ballad.......witness the gorgeous rendition of "At Last".

Actually, the whole cd is great! If I had to pick favorites they would be "Summertime", "Poinciana", "Stompin' At The Savoy","One For Renee" and "If I Were A Bell". It's hard to discount "On Green Dolphin Street" and the bluesy "Down The Track" also. As I said that nearly covers the whole cd.

It's hard to believe no one else has reviewed this gem! I would think this would especially appeal to Gene Harris fans, or Erroll Garner, or Oscar Peterson, or Red Garland. In other words, any fan of really good piano jazz trio!
