Music reviews of Live at Birdland

Music Review: Pizzarelli Live at Birdland
Rating: 5 Stars

If you ever get the chance to see John Pizzarelli live, do it. You won't regret it. My best friend & I saw him a couple months ago - he finally came to AZ - and we got to meet John briefly after the show. He's a totally cool guy, really down to earth.

So I've owned most of Pizzarelli's albums over the last 5-10 years and I'm actually so-so on a few of them. Some are definitely better than others; but after awhile, they've all sort of blended together for me. John is almost too prolific; it seems like he turns out a new CD every 6 months.

So that is why I like this 'Live at Birdland' best. It really shows off a different side of John Pizzarelli vs. what you don't get on his many studio albums. The live set is a lot funner, more upbeat, and generally happier.

Normally I'm against a lot of intro's/ song background info/ talking segments, but they really work on here. Pizzarelli has such a natural storytelling voice & way about him that he is really enjoyable to listen to.

It also contains the hands-down best version of 'I Like Jersey Best' - because you can really feel the crowd laughing along at the different versions.

There are a TON of John Pizzarelli cd's out there to buy, but this is my favorite of his. Overall, it's a very enjoyable set and it's the next best thing to seeing him play live.

Description of Live at Birdland

All products are BRAND NEW and factory sealed. Fast shipping and 100% Satisfaction Guaranteed.
This two-disc set celebrates the tenth anniversary of the John Pizzarelli Trio (with his brother Martin Pizzarelli on bass and Ray Kennedy on piano). Pizzarelli is the son of legendary guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli. Taught by his father, he grew up immersed in the world of jazz, playing with Zoot Sims by the time he was twenty. He's an easily engaging singer in the manner of Nat "King" Cole, drawing on both jazz standards and well-chosen contemporary material. Recorded at the famed New York City jazz club in the autumn of 2002, Pizzarelli mixes songs old and new into one seamless whole. George and Ira Gershwin rub shoulders with James Taylor, as he takes over the songs with his own casual confidence. The smoothness of his style belies prodigious chops. His between-song patter also shows him to have all of the qualities of a well-informed host who also knows how to tell a short and funny anecdote or two. Originals by both Pizzarelli and Kennedy add further diversity to a memorable night. --David Greenberger
