Erroll Garner - Erroll Garner Plays Gershwin And Kern
Review by tracy apps
Erroll Garner's album "Erroll Garner Plays Gershwin And Kern" is a delightful collection of jazz renditions of classic tunes by two of the most beloved American composers. Garner, a virtuosic pianist known for his unique style and improvisational skills, infuses each track with his signature flair, reimagining familiar melodies with a fresh and lively energy.
The album opens with "Someone To Watch Over Me," a Gershwin classic that Garner transforms into a lively and upbeat swing number. His nimble fingers dance across the keyboard, adding playful flourishes and unexpected twists to the familiar tune. Other standout tracks include "The Way You Look Tonight," a Kern classic that Garner infuses with a soulful, bluesy vibe, and "I Got Rhythm," a Gershwin standard that he turns into a rollicking, high-energy romp.
Throughout the album, Garner's piano playing is accompanied by a tight and dynamic rhythm section, which includes bassist Eddie Calhoun and drummer Kelly Martin. Their interplay and chemistry is evident on every track, adding depth and dimension to Garner's already impressive performances.
