Contents: [Jazz Department Store: Piano Edition] [SHM-CD] [New Mini Commentary] [First SHM-CD Release] A masterpiece of solo piano left behind by the genius Erroll Garner, who maintained a one-of-a-kind style. The "behind the beat" technique, where the melody in the right hand lags slightly behind the rhythm played by the left hand, creates an unparalleled sense of swing. "Yesterdays" and "St. James's Hospital" are magnificent, with every key resonating.
Erroll Garner (p) Recorded March 14, 1955 in New York Media Reviews etc. A masterpiece of solo piano left behind by the genius Erroll Garner, who maintained a one-of-a-kind style. The "behind the beat" technique, where the melody in the right hand lags slightly behind the rhythm played by the left hand, creates an unparalleled sense of swing. The powerful performances of "Yesterdays" and "St. James's Hospital," with every key on the keyboard ringing out, are magnificent. (C)RS
