"Eddie Green was a name unknown to me until I heard a cut from This One's For You. The man swings his a-- off with a very tight rhythm section of Tyrone Brown on bass and Jim Miller on drums. Track 1 kicks it off with a blazing version of Sam Jones's Unit Seven, and Green keeps his foot on the gas for a smokin' original, Skeeter's Kitchen, with a beat so blues drenched it could get the dead to start hip shakin'. Even his ballads, including All The Things You Are and Spring Can Really Hang You Up the Most, have a beautiful bluesy feel to them. Green, for a blazer, really knows how to evoke emotions at any tempo. Sound quality is excellent. I rate this CD among the top piano trios I have, including such marvelous players as Kenny Barron, Mulgrew Miller, Derek Smith, Eric Reed, John Hicks, Mike LeDonne, Michael Jefry Stevens, and Cyrus Chestnut. If you're into bluesy, cookin' piano trios who know how to vary the menu, add Eddie Green's This One's For You to your collection."
