Tracks list

Dick Hyman is such a versatile pianist that his own style has often been
overshadowed by his interpretations of other pianists work. Music of 1937, which
features 11 diverse songs premiered in that year, finds Hyman at times hinting
at Oscar Peterson (especially on Where or When), the stride piano masters,
classical music, and even the basslines of Dave McKenna, but mostly he plays in
his own virtuosic yet very melodic and accessible style. Loch Lomond pays
tribute to Benny Goodmans rendition, Thanks for the Memory is based a bit on Bob
Hopes original recording, and Art Tatum would have been proud to have cut this
version of In the Still of the Night. The wide range of emotions (from an
exuberant Bob White to a somber The Folks Who Live on the Hill) and Hymans
typically brilliant playing on the solo recital make this CD a particular
standout.
