Emily
CD (Item 614745) King (Japan), Mid 70s — Condition: New Copy
A sweet Japanese piano trio session from the 70s – named after the ballad "Emily", which features prominently in the lineup – but handled with a depth of sound that goes way past that familiar number! Emiko Kai's got a subtle touch on the keys – one that definitely has echoes of Bill Evans, and her treatment of the title tune – but there's also a warmer, rolling sense of piano work too – that style of inherently rhythmic playing that makes 70s Japanese sets like this so great. The group features American Donald Bailey on drums, plus Takashi Mizuhashi on bass – and titles include "Emily", "Tem Do De Mim", "Go Away Little Boy", "Beautiful Love", and "The Time Of My Life". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. | ||||||
