The veteran pianist Llew Matthews grew up in Harlem, New York. Over his long career, he has performed with numerous jazz giants including Kenny Dorham and Jackie McLean. He accompanied Lena Horne and seved as musical director for Nancy Wilson. While well known and cherished for his abilities as a side man, he had to wait until 1998 to release his first album as a leader, Nathalie, from a Japanese label. His third CD as a leader, brought to you by M&I of Japan, is a sweet and romantic collection of songs associated with the moon and stars. Matthews' straight forward, honest and elegant piano is supported well by veterans Stan Gilbert and Carl Burnett. The mood is relaxed, and appropriately romantic, and the gentle, dreamy swing of the trio is intoxicating: perfect music for a starry night!
