Billy Childs

Rebirth

2017-03-16

I enjoy reviewing different Jazz albums to hear how unique they can make it, and how they can separate themselves from other Jazz artists. I would consider this more of a piano jazz style album, but there are a couple of tunes like "The Starry Night" which are a little more upbeat and has some swing music feel it. I thought it was pretty good overall, despite it being more towards the piano music side of jazz, which can be kind of slow at times. Very Solid, and check out tracks 2, 5, and 6.
