Favorite Jazz Piano Albums?
Our first jazz album is the Art Tatum album titled Piano Starts Here.
It has his first four studio recordings, from March 21 1933,
as well as the April 2, 1949
"Just Jazz" live concert.
Sony recorded the re-performance before a live audience at
Los Angeles' Shrine Auditorium, scheduled for release June 6, 2008.
Our current work with Sony BMG calls for re-performances®
of eight more jazz albums.
Imagine picking through the Columbia and RCA Victor archives, choosing
your favorite solo piano recordings. But, now
you can hear them as if you were sitting
in the room the moment they were recorded.
What would you pick? What performers do you crave to hear in the
most modern sound? Which albums do you consider
as "5 stars for Performance, but 1 star for Sound?"
Tell us your favorite solo piano albums, preferably ones more than 50 years old.
We'll see if we can get them on our short list.
Original Performance, New Recording!
