Song80s Posted December 9, 2004 Share Posted December 9, 2004 If you like Emerson's piano work this import is a must have. It has 22 tunes. The styles varies between classic, jazz and ' boogie woogie' ( Cajun, barrelhouse) . His classical and tonal pieces are touching and emotional. He plays all these styles as superb as ever. I don't know of any other keyboardist with this depth of style and ability. I realize $27 is a stiff price. You can improve on that by going to Amazon Why fit in, when you were born to stand out ?

marino Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 I have it. It seems to be a compilation of tunes done in different periods and situations. While the playing is highly enjoyable, the album itself lacks in unity: Other than being in different styles, the tunes vary wildly in volume, quality of recording, piano tone, eq, etc. A little mastering work would have been welcome.However, the playing is generally very good, superb at times. The funky "Summertime" is a lot of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
