On Stomping At The Savoy, the definitive architect of swing-era keyboard refinement, American jazz piano icon Teddy Wilson, steps completely unaccompanied into the studio to deliver an exceptionally elegant, relaxed, and masterfully fluid solo document. Recorded in London in June 1967 and beautifully preserved on this pristine digital archive by Alan Bates’s legendary historical imprint Black Lion Records, this foundational milestone showcases the undisputed master of the elegant single-note style running through the core American songbook. Spanning over 48 minutes of immaculate high-fidelity spatial design, the 12-track landscape operates with a swinging, rhythmically light, and beautifully balanced kinetic energy. Wilson handles these timeless melodies with his legendary, aristocratic grace, firing off magnificent solo layouts like the title track stride workout Stomping At The Savoy, a gorgeous, fluidly moving take on Moonglow, and two fascinating, brilliant alternative tracking perspectives of Fats Waller's Honeysuckle Rose. Driven by his impeccable tenth-interval left-hand walking counterpoint and sparkling, crystal-clear right-hand lines, this pristine archive remains an indispensable masterpiece for serious swing purists and solo jazz piano collectors worldwide.

On Duke Ellington Piano Solos, the exceptionally elegant, knighted American jazz piano master Sir Roland Hanna steps completely unaccompanied into the studio to deliver a deeply reverent, sophisticated, and masterfully lyrical solo document. Released in 1991 by the distinguished classical and jazz audiophile label MusicMasters, this brilliant interpretive milestone features Hanna exploring the monumental compositional book of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn. Spanning over 46 minutes of immaculate high-fidelity spatial design, the 11-track landscape operates with a relaxed, deeply expressive, and beautifully balanced kinetic energy. Hanna bridges the gap between classic Harlem stride stride traditions, rich European impressionist dynamics, and advanced post-bop harmonic extensions—firing off magnificent solo layouts like the opening reflective warmth of In My Solitude, a jaw-droppingly tender reading of Single Petal of a Rose, and a dazzlingly complex, percussive transformation of the timeless classic Caravan. Driven by his sparkling right-hand runs, immense technical velocity, and flawless touch, this pristine archive remains an indispensable masterpiece for serious solo piano purists and mainstream jazz collectors worldwide.
