Review: Gilding a Lily:Like many reviewers, I only discovered Elis in the mid-90s, about a decade and a half after her passing; but from the first note I ever heard her sing (I think it was from this disc), I knew I had stumbled upon one of those artists that defy the notion of mortality... |

Review: Thielmans Brazil Project I:I love both the harmonic playing of Thielmans and Brazilian jazz. So combined one would expect something interesting. This album is good but he does a much better job in II, his second Brasil Project album; This first project drags a bit in comparison... |
 | Toots Thielemans & Kenny Werner [Read More ...]

Review: NICE!:I have just purchased this CD while making my usual friday
afternoon trips to the Virgin Mega Store and what a great holiday

magical instrument especially with Toots. All of the tracks from
this album is well-kn... |

Review: My favorite Toots album:This is my favorite Toots album, not only because of his beautiful playing but because of his sidemen, the first-rate engineering and production, and the thoughtful selection of the twelve tunes in the set. They range from standards like Wayne Shorter's "S... |

Description: It stands to reason that Belgian harmonica player Toots Thielemans's main influence was Django Reinhardt. His wispy, wistfully romantic tone immediately suggests nostalgia for another time, when early American jazz filtered through gypsy sensibilities before reaching Thielemans's... |

Review: Wonderful Jazz:Toots is one of my all time favorite jazzmen, so it's probably no surprise that I give this 5 stars. When you add the wonderful guitar of the late Joe Pass and the solid bass of Pedersen, you really have something special. Fantastic guitar solos from Pass, wonder... |
