Fantastic cd. Beautiful, relaxing piano jazz. All instrumental.
Dave Grusin is a great pianist. I listen to this cd all the time.

As far as I am concerned, Dave Grusin can do no wrong. Even though he has recorded all of these selections before, it's a new approach going just solo piano. Good selections! Easy to listen to at any time. I hope he continues to record.......... I'll continue buying!!

I just bought this CD by Dave Grusin. I've been following Dave's musical paths for over 25 years. I din't realize that he has also composed the soundtrack for many great films prior to this. Almost all of them have a place in this wonderful album. Be it Heart is a lonely hunter or Heaven Can Wait, Dave proves that he is an absolute virtuoso of the piano. My personal favourite is the theme from Mulholland Falls which according to me is a difficult composition. I can't think of any one song in this CD which is inferior. The songs just flow on from each other. It's a difficult task for any musician to do a solo album (esp a music composer) but Grusin comes up a complete winner. It also just goes to show that if a musician writes great material it would last a lifetime and it certainly does ! March on DG !

As a fan of both Dave Grusin's film scores and his jazz music, I was curious about this disc, as it is a collection of his movie themes and songs, but performed solo on piano by the composer. I have many of these songs on his other CDs, and so I was afraid it would be, to me, repetitive. I couldn't have been more wrong: Hearing these themes with no one between the composer and the listener was a whole new experience. The disc is on the quiet side - some would lump it under "Easy Listening," as though it were made for elevator music, which is not the case at all - but this is a disc that grows on you the more you listen. Highly recommended for jazz lovers and for those film-music lovers who want a different take on some familiar themes.

This is an amazing CD. I don't know if I can add more to what others have written other than to say this is a very moving CD. I was particularly impressed with the Memphis Stomp from The Firm. Just amazing... Did I say yet this CD is amazing????

A must have for any Grusin fan.
