Although his style falls between stride piano and swing,
Andy Fielding also has touches of
Keith Jarrett,
Art Tatum, and
Dave McKenna in his playing. For his entry in Arbors series of solo piano sets (of which this is Volume 8),
Fielding plays a few swing standards, "One Note Samba," a
Vince Guaraldi piece,
James P. Johnson's "Carolina Shout," a couple obscurities, and originals plus a stride version of "A Night in Tunisia." A colorful player,
Andy Fielding is one to watch for in the future. ~ Scott Yanow
