This excellent two-LP set features the great pianist Earl Hines interpreting ten of George Gershwin's compositions. Highlights of this solo piano session include extensive explorations of "Embraceable You" and "They Can't Take That Away from Me" (both are over ten minutes) and more concise readings of "They All Laughed" and "Love Walked In." Hines recorded so many rewarding records throughout his productive career that what would be considered "best" for some is merely "good" for him. This set is worth picking up, if it can still be found. ~ Scott Yanow http://www.allmusic.com/album/earl-hines-plays-george-gershwin-mw0000235303
