'A Time For Love' jazz piano solo

[kingusmcgee]

I think what Doug is doing here on Time For Love is about as good as one can get. Makes me jealous to see someone play like this. Great Johnny Mandel tune written in the mid-60's.

Beautiful - thank you! I, too, was reminded of Bill Evans. Personally, I find listening to Matt Monro's unaffected delivery of Webster's lyric and Johnny Mandel's music to this lovely song to be an ideal complement to exploring its wonderful changes. Like the man said, pure bliss. Yes, indeed, pure bliss; the sheer rapture of aesthetic arrest...(wistful sigh).

[milorico1]

check out lou levy's solo on the stan getz track from his album On Green Dolphin St ..... or perhaps you already have? There are also lyrics which can be found sung by Abby Lincoln and Jamie Callum

Lovely song

Its funny hearing the lyrics years after getting to know the instrumental version so well, the music said it all, the lyrics just confirmed what I already knew......

Nice tune to spend time with

[khawass]

Bill Evans: Alone. The most amazing solo piano album ever....

[pourata]

can anyone please tell me what the name of the song is? I really like it and would want to start collecting this type of music. Tired of rock and roll!

[themuge]

i think the name of the song is 'a time for love' ? just a guess tho

[boxcarguy07]

lol... i think you might just be right. not completely sure

[MSlapik]

Get the Bill Evans version on his album, "Alone." There's actually two versions, the main and the alternate, and I actually like the alternate more.

[freddifree]

How can you be tired of Rock n Roll?????!!!!!

Its a beautiful track

I would hunt down the version of "A time for love" on the Stan Getz CD called On Green Dolphin Street. The piano solo by Lou Levy is wonderful.

Then check out the versions with lyrics by Abbey Lincoln and Jamie Callum and there are others too .....

Enjoy

[tuskerade]
