The master of the seven-string guitar (which he invented) and a studio musician since the 1930s, George Van Eps only had rare chances to lead his own record dates. In fact, this classic album was his only recording as a leader during 1950-1965. Van Eps is heard playing in three settings: with a quiet rhythm section, a nonet arranged by Paul Weston, and a subtle string orchestra. Because he always came up with the most beautiful chords in the world, Van Eps' playing throughout this set is quite delightful, performing ten standards (including "I'll Remember April," "Let's Do It," "Have You Met Miss Jones?," and "The Boy Next Door") and his own "Lost Canyon" and "Tango el Bongo." Although some may think of this as easy listening music, a close listen reveals the intricate creativity of the great George Van Eps. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi
