Pianist Sir Roland Hanna tears through this live trio studio session, recorded in Japan, without seeming to work up a sweat. He covers six standards on this CD that have "love" in their titles. The opener, "Love for Sale," includes a slow but beautiful, almost Oriental, chimelike introduction that rapidly gives way to an uptempo arrangement. 

Bassist George Mraz has worked with Hanna regularly and provides solid support and several top-notch solos. The choice of drummer is a mystery, Motohiko Hino, whose enthusiastic but often heavy-handed drumming makes it sound as if he were in competition with the pianist instead of supporting him. ~ Ken Dryden  http://www.allmusic.com/album/glove-mw0000311039
