Review by Scott Yanow
Marian McPartland, who is joined by bassist Ben Tucker and drummer Dave Bailey along with Ralph Dorsey and Bob Crowder on percussion, plays an above-average set of sophisticated bop-oriented jazz. She contributed three forgotten originals, jams on a few standards (including Tucker's hit "Comin' Home Baby") and plays an early Wurlitzer electric piano on three numbers. The music is pleasing if not all that memorable.

Biography by Scott Yanow
Marian McPartland became famous for hosting her Piano Jazz radio program beginning in 1978, but she was a well-respected pianist decades before. She played in a four-piano vaudeville act in England and performed on the European continent for the troops during World War II. In Belgium in 1944, she met cornetist Jimmy McPartland and they soon married. Marian moved with her husband to the United States in 1946, where she sometimes played with him even though her style was more modern than his Dixieland-oriented groups. McPartland eventually had her own trio at the Embers (1950) and the Hickory House (1952-1960), which until 1957 included drummer Joe Morello. She recorded regularly for Savoy and Capitol during the 1950s and also made sessions for Argo (1958), Time (1960 and 1963), Sesac, and Dot. Although eventually divorced from Jimmy, they remained close friends, sometimes played together, and even remarried just weeks before his death. She formed her own Halcyon label and recorded several fine albums between 1969-1977. McPartland also made three albums for Tony Bennett's Improv label during 1976-1977 before signing with Concord, where she remained after 1978. The Jazz Alliance label has made available over 30 CDs' worth of material from Marian McPartland's Piano Jazz show, some of which are quite fascinating and significant. McPartland died in August 2013 at her home in Port Washington, New York; she was 95 years old.

Reseña de Scott Yanow
Marian McPartland, a la que se unen el bajista Ben Tucker y el baterista Dave Bailey junto con Ralph Dorsey y Bob Crowder en la percusión, toca un conjunto de jazz sofisticado orientado al bop por encima de la media. Contribuyó con tres originales olvidados, con improvisaciones en algunos estándares (incluyendo el éxito de Tucker "Comin' Home Baby") y toca un piano eléctrico Wurlitzer temprano en tres números. La música es agradable, si no tan memorable.

Biografía de Scott Yanow
Marian McPartland se hizo famosa por ser la anfitriona de su programa de radio Piano Jazz a partir de 1978, pero era una pianista muy respetada décadas antes. Tocó en un acto de vodevil de cuatro pianos en Inglaterra y actuó en el continente europeo para las tropas durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. En Bélgica, en 1944, conoció al cornetista Jimmy McPartland y pronto se casaron. Marian se mudó con su marido a los Estados Unidos en 1946, donde a veces tocaba con él aunque su estilo era más moderno que el de sus grupos de orientación dixieliana. McPartland llegó a tener su propio trío en el Embers (1950) y en el Hickory House (1952-1960), que hasta 1957 incluía al baterista Joe Morello. Grabó regularmente para Savoy y Capitol durante los años 50 y también hizo sesiones para Argo (1958), Time (1960 y 1963), Sesac y Dot. Aunque finalmente se divorciaron de Jimmy, siguieron siendo amigos íntimos, a veces tocaron juntos, e incluso se volvieron a casar unas semanas antes de su muerte. Formó su propio sello Halcyon y grabó varios buenos álbumes entre 1969 y 1977. McPartland también hizo tres álbumes para el sello Improv de Tony Bennett durante 1976-1977 antes de firmar con Concord, donde permaneció después de 1978. El sello Jazz Alliance ha puesto a disposición más de 30 CDs con material del espectáculo Piano Jazz de Marian McPartland, algunos de los cuales son bastante fascinantes y significativos. McPartland murió en agosto de 2013 en su casa de Port Washington, Nueva York; tenía 95 años.
