But Garland was also capable of holding the spotlight all on his own and crafted a series of appealing trio recordings for the same label. ...

This two-fer captures two sessions, about two-thirds of which were recorded live. At first, Garland seems like little more than a talented cocktail pianist, but as each tunes progresses ...
