Description
For nearly 30 years, guitarist John Pizzarelli has explored various corners of the jazz landscape and merged a variety of styles into a single, distinctive signature sound - a convergence of jazz, swing, the American songbook, pop, bossa nova and more. 'Double Exposure' focuses on two distinct styles to make a single fine recording - a collection of tunes by some of the great pop songwriters of his own generation that are framed squarely within traditional jazz arrangements.
"I didn't want to just cover these songs, but rather find a way to present them that was unusual and interesting'" says Pizzarelli. "I think growing up in a household that had two specific record collections became the inspiration - my father's jazz records, my sisters' record collection and records brought around by their friends."
The result is a fascinating and engaging musical hybrid. 'Double Exposure' draws from a diverse pool of some of the best pop songwriters of the past five decades: Lennon and McCartney, Neil Young, James Taylor, Leiber and Stoller, Tom Waits, Joni Mitchell and others. Woven into these memorable compositions are threads of jazz borrowed from figures like Wes Montgomery, Billy Strayhorn, Thad Jones and John Coltrane.
