Description
For much of his lifetime, the great Kenny Drew was extremely well-known throughout
the European jazz community, yet largely forgotten in his homeland the USA. The
reasons for this were directly linked to his decision to become an expatriate and his
determination to stand by that decision. He first lived in Paris, while commuting to other parts of Europe for festivals but after moving to Denmark and marrying the daughter of pianist Leo Mathisen, Drew entered the period covered by this album. Kenny was now able to draw together the threads of his already identifiable style and to develop it in a wider variety of contexts.
Tracks: Everything I Love / Ode To Mariann / Willow Weep For Me / Swingin’ Till The Girls
Come Home / Yesterdays / Blues For Nils / A Simple Need / Whisper Not / Blues For Nils / There’s No Greater Love / Ack Värmland Du Sköna.
