Play George Gershwin
In spite of the title of the CD misleading internet buyers, this is a good purchase. Tracks 1-16 make a fine Sammy Price solo-piano album, with songs written by Waller, Fields-McHugh, Hammerstein II-Kern, Gershwin, Handy, Price himself and others. On the tracks 17-24 Sammy really plays Gershwin, with Doc Cheatham joining him on some of the numbers; my favorites are "Embraceable you" (where Doc's horn sounds both sonorous and low-down dirty) and "Rhapsody in Blue", a witty and concise 3'10'' version (quite in tune with the rest of the CD), a beautiful gershwinesque gem with Doc putting in some real trumpet passion, replacing the entire orchestra... So, if you're into buying Price&Cheatham's album, the Gitanes company is cheating you, but Price's solo performances are witty, blue and swinging, so you will probably not regret adding them to your jazz and blues collection. Doc's contributions are cream on the top of the cake.
