5.0 out of 5 stars The new poster boy for mainstream jazz, October 30, 2009

This review is from: Yours Is My Heart Alone (Audio CD)

This guy recorded this album when he was just 25, completing his trio with veterans Peter Washington and Lewis Nash. Which is astonishing, in light of how accomplished it all is. Nimmer has absorbed influences like Oscar Peterson, Ahmad Jamal and Wynton Kelly into a ringing, fast-fingered style of his own that almost sounds like Phineas Newborn in spots. As with Newborn, there's some real soul and jazz feeling lurking behind the preternaturally flashy technique. The result is one of the most enjoyable piano trio recordings I've heard since the end of the golden age of the music in the 1950s and 60s. Nimmer may be recording on Japan's obscure but classy Venus label now, but it's only a matter of time before the American majors draft this kid. Or perhaps that would reflect better taste than they usually demonstrate.

Dance to it, chill to it, set it as background music for homework or even a party. This is an all around great CD! I highly recommend this CD to, not only jazz lovers, but also, those who love quality music. It was a little over an hour long, but I still wanted more after the last song was over, so I listened to it again.
