Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Simply outstanding! Nero swings with the best of them........1998-12-05

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have complete mastery and control over an instrument? Peter Nero isn't wondering because he's there. This album is the perfect vehicle for him to show off his chops as a jazz pianist and he proves that he can swing with the best of them. I've played this album for friends and colleagues for the past 10 years and they are always blown away....then they buy it for themselves.

The intro to "Satin Doll" is especially impressive. You'll wonder whether or not he's somehow added notes to the piano. But, don't stop there because "Take the 'A' Train" is the best! It's fast, it's moving, he's all over the place. How does he do that? Who knows, but I know this much...this one is a must have!
