Eddie Higgins with Scott Hamilton - My Funny Valentine

Another classy Venus outing for this perfectly matched pair. Higgins is sort of the perfect partner for Scott - completely in the pocket, a safe pair of hands.
By now you'll know what to expect - there are no surprises, just standards played with a classy touch. The opening 'You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To' swings nicely and 'I'm a Fool To Want You' is done as a gentle bossa. The title track opens with a nice piano intro that has an almost classical symmetry, when the melody enters you can hear the air blow through Hamilton's tenor. All nice stuff. Enjoy.
