"I have always enjoyed this mans style at the piano. It harkens back to a pleasant time when music was lovely, and style is what seperated paino players from pianists. Carmen had a distinctive style and the cuts of this album give you an overall idea of what he can do. It is great cocktail party music, and it is a nice listen for a quiet afternoons or evenings. But his style is NOT background music, it is solo bravo performances, especially TILL, LOVE LETTERS, and ESTRILITA. I will buy anything that he has and which is available, and the sound quality of this import is very good. I first found him from the soundtrack of the Eddy Duchin story and while Duchin was a stand alone superior pianist, the quality of his reissues is often times lacking. Pick this one up, its pricey but worth it."
