Jazz / Bop; Cool

Hank Jones - piano (left channel) John Lewis - piano (right channel)
This album is an unlikely success. On a set of piano duets by Hank Jones and John Lewis, there is plenty of swing, a liberal dose of good humor and surprisingly uncrowded ensembles. Highpoints of the eight spirited performances include "Stompin' at the Savoy," "Confirmation," "Billie's Bounce" and "I'll Remember April." ---Scott Yanow, allmusic |
