Rock & roll, boogie-woogie, ballads, swing and good original jive, nowadays quite difficult to find, performed by one of the most charismatic British musicians of that genre Dave Taylor is a good singer and a genuine piano player, who represents the classic fifties style, with more than thirty years of experience and a good number of records behind him The cd includes twenty tracks where you will find own compositions together with versions od, among others, Moon Mullican, Bobby Boulter or Lou Willie The songs belong to different moments of Taylor’s life, from Schooldays –recorded in 1975- to the recent ones that come from 1999, all them performed on a convincing determinated way, thanks to the good work of a bunch of professional musicians, who know what they are doing and how to do it Dave Taylor is backed by a horn section including tenor, alto and baritone sax, trumpet and trombone, plus guitar, pedal steel, string arrangements, acoustic bass, drums and other different instruments in some tracks such as flute, violin, viola, cello, accordion… and so on A cd that should be taken into account
