Our Take

Alright, grab your martini and put on your smoking jacket because we're diving into Sonny Clark's "Four Classic Albums." This jazz pianist serves up a tantalizing mix of tunes that will have you tapping your toes and snapping your fingers in no time.

"Sonny's Crib" kicks things off with a cool, laid-back vibe that transports you straight to a smoky New York jazz club in the 1950s. Clark's piano skills are on full display, effortlessly weaving in and out of the melodies with a swagger that is impossible to resist.

Next up, "Cool Struttin'" is a masterclass in coolness. The album oozes with sophistication and class, with Clark's intricate piano work blending seamlessly with the smooth saxophone and trumpet solos. It's the perfect soundtrack for a night out on the town or a lazy Sunday afternoon.

The third album, "Leapin' and Lopin'," takes things up a notch with its energetic tempo and infectious grooves. Clark's fingers fly across the keys, showcasing his incredible technique and musicality. You won't be able to sit still while listening to this one.

And finally, "Standards" is a delightful collection of jazz standards reimagined by Sonny Clark. His fresh take on these timeless classics breathes new life into old favourites, making for a truly enjoyable listening experience.

Overall, "Four Classic Albums" is a must-have for any jazz lover. Sonny Clark's talent and creativity shine through on every track, making this a timeless addition to any music collection. Cheers to that!
