Guaraldi, Vince

In Person
Sealed Full Radial Stereo Housed In A Laminated Jacket. What a Great Pianist! Also Features Eddie Duran, Guitar; Benny Velarde, Scratcher; Fred Marshall, Bass And Colin Bailey, Drums. Known for his distinctive and lyrical piano style, Guaraldi delivers a remarkable performance that captures the essence of his live gigs during this period. The album features a selection of tracks that highlight his ability to blend melodic jazz with a touch of bossa nova and Latin influences. A follow-up to his surprise hit album Jazz Impressions of Black Orpheus, this is Guaraldi at his most winning, alternating between a straight jazz trio and the fast bossa nova groove of a Latin-ized quintet. Nothing fancy, just irresistible melodic swinging in either format, although it is the bossa treatments that particularly grab the listener's heart and feet. Best in the set are "Outra Vez," where Guaraldi calmly savors Jobim's beguiling harmonies on top of a frantic bossa beat, and Guaraldi's own quirky tune "Freeway." Mostly recorded in a club setting, this is a defining album for Guaraldi in his natural habitat. AMG
