Description: Personnel: Dave Grusin (p), Milt Hinton (b), Osie Johnson (d), plus String Orchestra · Collectors Edition · Issued in Digipack · Original Cover Art and Liner Notes · Stereo Recordings · Newly Remastered in 24-Bit One of the reasons for the success of this 1962 album is the excellence of Dave Grusins arrangements for eleven violins, two violas, two cellos, bass and drums. While making this album, Dave says, I saw no reason why nice harmonic changes could not be played by strings. I saw no reason why the string writing could not be a little more complicated than it usually is for albums of this type. And with the freedom Bob [Robert Mersey, the albums producer] gave me, I wrote and played exactly what I wanted. Mersey observes that with Daves arrangements, the strings simply become an extension of the piano. In this album Grusin showed that he has a deft, sensitive touch, inventiveness and exceptionally good taste. 01. Love Is Here to Stay (G. & I. Gershwin) 3:03 02. Fly Me to the Moon (Howard) 2:44 03.
