Title: Nice companion to Pure Gershwin
Review: OK, so you have Pure Gershwin and you're wondering if you want this one too: After all, there are a songs on both collections. Don't worry: This is a very different presentation. Where Pure Gershwin was mostly just Feinstein at the piano, this CD has Feinstein providing the music in a band context. Much of the CD is piano drums bass trombone and voice (the trombone parts throughout the CD, btw are quite luscious). For an added bonus there are more than a few songs which will be unfamiliar to even the most devoted Gershwin fans. My personal favorite among these is the surprisingly cynical "Anything for You" with lyrics that belie the cheery melody and arrangement.
Is the review positive or negative?
