Stephane Grappelli • Live At Corby Festival Hall

Stephane Grappelli recorded frequently during the last three decades of his life and previously unissued recordings like this 1975 concert at Corby Festival Hall have continued to turn up. On this occasion the violinist is accompanied by lead guitarist Diz Disley, rhythm guitarist Ike Isaacs and bassist David Moses. The set is fairly typical, concentrating on standards from the 1920s through the 1940s, starting with a chugging but brisk take of "I Can't Believe That You're in Love With Me." The marvelous duet by Grappelli and Disley of "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes," Grappelli's inventive treatment of "(Back Home Again In) Indiana" and the crowd-pleasing "Sweet Georgia Brown" are among the highlights. It is simply amazing that Stephane Grappelli never seemed to go on autopilot as he played a song for the hundredth (or possibly thousandth) time; this CD is a valuable addition to his already vast discography.

Stephane Grappelli grabó con frecuencia durante las últimas tres décadas de su vida y las grabaciones inéditas como este concierto de 1975 en el Corby Festival Hall continúan apareciendo. En esta ocasión, el violinista está acompañado por el guitarrista principal Diz Disley, el guitarrista rítmico Ike Isaacs y el bajista David Moses. El conjunto es bastante típico, y se concentra en los estándares desde la década de 1920 hasta la década de 1940, comenzando con una versión arrogante pero enérgica de "No puedo creer que estés enamorado de mí". El maravilloso dúo de Grappelli y Disley de "Smoke Gets in Your Eyes", el tratamiento inventivo de Grappelli de "(Back Home Again in Indiana)" y la "Sweet Georgia Brown" que complacen a la multitud están entre los más destacados. Es simplemente asombroso que Stephane Grappelli nunca haya aparecido con el piloto automático mientras tocaba una canción por centésima (o posiblemente milésima) vez; Este CD es una valiosa adición a su ya extensa discografía.
