Oh Play That Thing (1998)

Neville Dickie has long been one of the top stride pianists in jazz. For this unusual set, he performs 22 songs that were recorded in the 1920s by King Oliver, 18 of them by Oliver's 1923 Creole Jazz Band. Somehow Dickie adapts the band pieces into showcases for his piano. 14 of the songs are taken as piano solos while the other eight add supportive bass and drums. Some of the songs in the repertoire became standards (such as "Chimes Blues," "Doctor Jazz," "Dippermouth Blues," and "Willie the Weeper"), but it is particularly intriguing to hear such tunes as "I'm Going Away Just to Wear You off My Mind," "Just Gone," "Alligator Hop," and "Sweet Baby Doll" played in this format. Dickie is up to the challenge and plays brilliantly and creatively throughout. ~ Scott Yanow, Rovi Read Less
