His best solo effort.......2006-12-14

One of the best takes on April in Paris you will ever hear.The best swingingest thing he ever laid down as a solo Jazz Pianist.

Unexpectedly Great.......2005-05-04

I know Mr. Previn as a conductor, former spouse of Mia Farrow and film composer. I ordered this CD on a whim and was wowed. He is not exactly Art Tatum but, at times, as close as a European can get. He definitely knows how to swing and understands jazz piano very deeply. Especially for a classical musician (I am a jazz musician who frequently interfaces with classical players) he is at home in both worlds.
I had a high regard for Mr. Previn to begin with especially because of his conducting of my favorite composer Ravel. But hearing this early work of his convinces me that he is a musical talent of the first water in both fields.

A must.......2001-10-03

For any lover of great pianism, jazz at its best, real talent, brilliance, this has a lot to offer. What a talent he was then, what invention. His albums of Kern and Arlen are also great, but the very best (which needs to be rereleased, and WITH the outtakes) is Previn All Alone, an LP from the "60's, those heady Mia Farrow days, I suppose. He was in love.
