Has he done us a favor?

Who would have thought: Since consists of the piano, which is world ferhsehbekannt, and play ... and sing, too!
The Hugh Laurie on the cover looks like someone who has finally fulfilled a wish. And what about us, the audience, the consumer?
The first notes remind me of "Play me the song vomTod", then already rippling harp, a little later even castanets, my God! softly the piano, and then a tango rhythm, the saxophone schnarzt the melody, nor a bisschem from "Sting" and then, oh yes, that's the St. Louis Blues! A thousand times heard and yet completely different, and everything fits, believe it or not, wonderful in this way together.
Here's even more, not a bit boring: Blues and jazz, Dixieland, sometimes slower, sometimes faster, more soulful, slanted. Wonderful arrangements here very complicated, there subtle, beautiful voices, very entertaining and always different.
I am now only my own music critic, with no special training. What I do not like, I put aside, later it will be disposed of.
This disk is never discarded. It stands out very welcome change from the everyday unit Quark, rather than just bar music, but also good for your evening. Technically perfect, a pleasure on my old Tivoli installation.
Conclusion: Hugh L. and band have done me a very great favor, but thank you very much
