"Excelent interpretation of lovely swing standard "Moonglow". Teddy Wilson shows a lirical approach to this theme and lets the arrangement be one of the best we can hear!!"

Old pro in a pretty, pleasant outing...

"Mr. Wilson has been around forever, and on this release he tackles some famous songs and a few obscure titles. It's all good. This CD provides about an hour of cocktail jazz, background music with an occasional bite to it. Most of the numbers were recorded in London in 1967. Mr. Wilson, who won fame playing piano for Benny Goodman, here is accompanied by Dave Shepherd on the clarinet instead of BG (but then, it's Teddy's turn to be leader!) Vibes, drums and bass are also competent contributors. It's not a masterpiece, nor a turning point in jazz history, but it's feel-good fun."
