Hi Jack! Great video on this I'm important artist. I knew him from the classical world, and was surprised when I started discovering his jazz outings. Thanks for covering this aspect of his career. Loved the West Side Story reissue. Great stuff!
I appreciate the shout out!
Great video, Jack. And thank you so much for the shout outs! Cheers, a
My Fair Lady is a favorite! Previn, Shelly Manne and Leroy Vinnegar make a great trio!
Great video on Previn. His album King Size is my favourite and so deserving of a reissue.
He SHOULD BE spoken about with all those names you mentioned - he was a PRODIGY! INCREDIBLE pianist!!! I have the Previn 96 CD box set as well as jazz & classical vinyl LPs !!! Great video 👍
No one lese I know was a jazz pianist, arranger, world class conductor!--what a genius!-...thanks for watching and for the comment--JG
So glad to see a video on Andre Previn.I first heard his playing on Shelly Manne and Friends album and was really impressed,also his Jazz rendition of Camelot.Hes the only jazz pianist that I would ever consider in the same stratosphere as Bill Evans in that non Bluesey / classics based piano jazz that l prefer.
Thanks for the comment--you are 100% correct... what a genius!---appreciate the reply and your viewship!-JG
i have a few andre previn albums, he made a few non jazz albums, but the ones on contemporary records are definitely jazz!
Dave,
As a classical guy as well I have almost all of his recordings. He did a gret job in that area as well. A true genius!
Thanks for watching and keep ip you great work as well!

Hi Jack. Andre Previn, I hate the guy. Classical pianist extraordinaire, Jazz supremo, sense of humour, suave and charismatic. Don't you just hate that. 🤣🤣🤣
Just picked up his Shostakovich No5 on EMI. Sounds awesome. Great vid mate.
I heard he was a really funny guy to be around as well. The studio guys in LA loved him, He had it all. had a bunch of wives so I bet he had a pretty colorful life!--I'm like a choir boy!!!
Thanks forthe comment and for listening-Regards,
Jack
Great video
Awesome
Great job Jack
