Description

Lew Pollack was born in New York City, among his best-known songs are Charmaine and Diane. That's a Plenty is a 1914 ragtime piano composition by Pollack. Lyrics were added decades later and a number of popular vocal versions have been recorded, but it is more often performed as an instrumental. The composition started out as a rag but is nowadays more often than not played as part of the Dixieland jazz repertoire. The song has been recorded by numerous artists and is considered a jazz standard.

“One of the finest brass ensemble recordings that has ever come my way.”

Rodney Newton

“This intriguing "water-borne" voyage runs the gamut from more classically-tinged interpretations to straight-ahead and improvised jazz. Along that journey we are treated to a highly inspired and masterfully presented performance.”
