About this album

Today finds the Dudley Moore Trio in bright, polished form, balancing elegant jazz piano with a lightness of touch that reflects Moore’s unusual dual life as comedian and serious musician. Issued in 1972, the album shows the trio working in a supple, melodic style that moves easily between standards and original pieces, with Moore’s fluent playing supported by a tight rhythm section. It is a reminder that his musicianship was more than a novelty: he was a capable jazz pianist with a refined ear for harmony, phrasing and swing. The album sits neatly within his broader reputation as a cultured, well-rounded entertainer.
