Eddie Higgins Trio - Dear Old Stockholm / 2LP Venus Records

By the time this album was recorded in 2002, pianist Eddie Higgins was already one of Japan's most popular jazz pianists. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of his label, Venus Records asked

his fans which songs they would like to hear from the Eddie Higgins Trio on the new album. Higgins chose from these suggestions."Dear Old Stockholm" contains many ballads and is for the most

part a gentle, relaxing album. Backed by the deep, melodic bass of Jay Leonhart and the sensitive drumming of Joe Ascione, Higgins plays the popular songs with elegance and restrained passion.

Venus LPs are pressed only once. After the first edition is sold out, the titles are removed from the catalog. Collectors should therefore consider a purchase in time.
