Harry Allen Quartet with John Bunch, piano

Obviously not for everyone but I couldn't live without these transcriptions. It really clarifies the whole story behind the music for me and I find the piano versions to be worthy companions to the symphony version. I learn something new by listening through a medium (the piano) which I have a greater understanding of. Currently, this week I've really spent a lot of time with #6, 7, & 8.

It's hard to believe 10 fingers and a human mind could accomplish this feat and also that a 9' grand can withstand such demands. For those who might think this sort of thing as sacrilegious or not worth your time remember Beethoven was a pianist first and foremost and it is likely that all his ideas started on the piano...

Highly recommended.

Why? Because its a superb album. It encapsulates all that was and is enjoyable about the whole pop-synth movement. Also, it contains one of the top love songs ever written, 'You surround me'. Love songs usually fall into two categories, sentimental claptrap or introspective bitterness: this song manages to celebrate both without falling victim to ethier.

quote:
Don't ever let me take you for granted,
You've got your finger on the pulse of my soul,
Let me place a kiss in the small of your back,
Love and protect you from the evils of this world.


Recommended by me. Smile

Thanks, but last I knew Spotify didn't work in the US. I will double check.

I have 3 of Tori's boots - Chicago and Los Angeles from a solo tour and San Diego from a band tour for ADP.
