Ended the weekend and welcomed the week after a walk with A Flower Is a Lovesome Thing the second studio album by American jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi (credited to the Vince Guaraldi Trio), released in the US by Fantasy Records in October 1957. DownBeat praised the album's soothing tone, noting, in part, that "Guaraldi is serenely wistful in his interpretation of Billy Strayhorn's title song, is surely relaxed in the lightly swinging 'Softly.' He delightfully colors the impressionistic 'Yesterdays.' 'Like a Rose' is accorded a treatment almost elegiac in its poetic quietude." - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NOketqcg08&list=RD0NOketqcg08&start_radio=1 #VinceGuaraldi #EddieDuran #Jazz #Music #JazzPiano #CharlieBrown

Ended Monday and welcomed Tuesday after a swim with Vince Guaraldi Trio the debut studio album by American jazz pianist Vince Guaraldi (credited to the Vince Guaraldi Trio), released in the US by Fantasy Records in September 1956. Billboard wrote a positive review, “Altho [sic] sales are unlikely to be spectacular, this is one of the pleasant surprises of the month. Guaraldi is a young San Francisco pianist who has been getting rave notices with the Woody Herman band. Evidence here says he’s a tasteful, authoritative and facile modernist, and that he swings. Further, he has a sense of humor. Guitarist Eddie Duran and bassist Dean Reilly are worthy colleagues. Try their version of John Lewis' 'Django' for a real delight.” - Wikipedia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rXf-ymAYdHg&list=PL9reB0DlKm6vv-wriP8wGPmUrCRfL9jxZ&index=1 #VinceGuaraldi #CharlieBrown #Jazz #JazzPiano #EddieDuran #Music #JohnLewis #WoodyHerman #CalTjader #Django
