Kuhn,Steve Life'S Magic CD

Life's Magic stands as a terrific document of Steve Kuhn's artistic prowess as composer, stylist and interpreter. The powerful group that he led for this session was second to none and provided a performance that will be enjoyed for generations to come. The pianist recruited the rhythm tandem Ron Carter and Al Foster to accompany him on a program featuring four originals and three inspired renditions of jazz standards, including Stanley Adams and Hoagy Carmichael's "Little Old Lady," Fats Waller's "Jitterbug Waltz" and Mysels/Robertson/Cogane's gem "Yesterday's Gardenias." the new CD edition includes two previously unreleased tracks, Raymond Evans/Jay Livingstone's "Never Let Me Go" and Hammerstein/Romberg's "Softly As in a Morning Sunrise."
