The Pizzarelli Boys: Sunday At Pete's

Read "Sunday At Pete's" reviewed by AAJ Italy Staff


Un disco decisamente imbarazzante pervaso da uno sconcertante gusto retrò di cui sono sfortunati protagonisti padre (Bucky) e figli (John e Martin) Pizzarelli, più il batterista Tony Tedesco. Tredici standard ed una composizione originale per un percorso affettato, che nella migliore delle soluzioni guarda - senza avvicinarsi - al modello reinhardtiano, ma il paragone con il ...

John Pizzarelli: Dear Mr. Sinatra

Read "Dear Mr. Sinatra" reviewed by Woodrow Wilkins


There's something about John Pizzarelli that makes anything he does all right--or better than all right.

John Pizzarelli: Knowing You

Read "Knowing You" reviewed by Dr. Judith Schlesinger


I've always been the ultimate non-fan of the ever-growing Sinatra-esque, finger-popping, wink-a-dinging, Vegashtick franchise. That's one reason it took me so long to get to this release, and I'm glad I finally did, because it was such a surprise how much I liked it. Although Pizzarelli's voice still sounds pinched, and can't always go ...
