Mike Greensill Trio: "Live at the Plush Room"

by Steven Winn
San Francisco Chronicle - Sunday Datebook, February 15, 2004

Among San Francisco's many musical blessings, count the sensitivity,
responsive wit and inventive bounty of jazz pianist Mike Greensill.
The accompanist-husband of local cabaret stalwart Wesla Whitfield,
Greensill is emerging as an estimable force in his own right, with
his Mike Greensill Trio (drummer Donald Bailey and bassist John
Wiitala). This "Live at the Plush Room" recording dresses up tunes by
Gershwin, Porter, Sunny Clapp and others with casual elegance.
Melodic variations, elastic rhythms, solo spinouts and sly harmonies
all serve the source. "Love for Sale" gets a slow, insouciant
vamp. "I'll Never Stop Loving You" floats by in a pillowy cloud. The
staccato pulse in "It Ain't Necessarily So" gives that Gershwin
standard a refreshing petulance. Greensill adds a few numbers of his
own, and also sings on several cuts -- in a cheery croak that knows
no imitators.
