Personnel: Chuck Folds (piano). Liner Note Author: Chuck Folds. Recording information: Clinton Studios, NY, NY (10/15/1992-10/??/1992). A brilliant stride and swing pianist, Chuck Folds gained some attention for his work with Doc Cheatham in the 1980s and '90s. This solo disc is his definitive set and shows how talented a pianist the underrated Folds has always been. The program includes stride classics from James P. Johnson and Fats Waller, along with Folds' exploration of slightly later swing standards and wistful ballads. All 21 selections hold one's interest and listeners get a wide-ranging display of the pianist's talents. Among the many highlights are "Keep Off the Grass," "If Dreams Come True," "Rose of the Rio Grande," "Mule Walk," "Johnny Come Lately," and "My Honey's Lovin' Arms." This is highly recommended to fans of early jazz piano. ~ Scott Yanow
