Product Description

Although Dick Hyman has the ability to play quite credibly in most jazz styles, he has spent much of the 1980s and '90s performing stride and swing. This release, a trio date with guitarist Howard Alden and bassist Bob Haggart, was a change of pace, for Hyman plays mostly in a more boppish and modern mainstream vein. In the wide repertoire, the pianist ranges from Django and a pair of Thelonious Monk tunes to Flip Phillips' The Claw, Billy Strayhorn's Lotus Blossom, and two of his originals. The music is excellent, if not overly memorable.
