5.0 out of 5 stars Superb solo recital, October 17, 2007

Jacky Terrassan's solo recital (an appropriate term for this classical-like CD) is very interesting and creative. Whether it is the African inspired Caravan, deeply felt, beautiful ballads like You've Got a Friend and Everything Happens to Me, or original compositions/improvisations, this CD gives a clear picture of Terrassan's unique and considerable talents. I highly recommend this beautifully recorded CD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrasson is back!, January 29, 2008

Jacky Terrasson is back. Back with his beloved Steinway piano and with it, all colours, timbers, subtleties that are the signature of Terrasson's music. A solo piano album is not an easy choice but perhaps is an unavoidable one at his stage of a career.
Caravan is orchestral, colorful, almost perfumed, infused with images and variety. But it is "everything Happens to me" that really brought it home and was so intimate, like a confession about harder times...
Sophisticated as mentioned by one reviewer, musical, personal and intelligent. it is also well recorded.
Classical pianists could learn a thing or two from him...

I was selling jazz Cd's when I heard CD's like "Reach" on Blue Note and "Love Man" on Venus both of which I really liked.But Terrason seems to have a hard time deciding on styles (one CD he is straight ahead with a great touch next it's that dreadful M-Base stuff).Here mixing originals and chestnuts I just coudn't dig it.Ken Dryden gave it 4.5 stars at [....] so maybe I am no "professional".But to me it's over indulgent slop that soon will have him on a "precious" level with Brad Mehldau.You might find different but I was disappointed.
Cheers
