Guitarist-vocalist John Pizzarelli makes no secret of his musical influences: Nat King Cole Trio, Joao Gilberto, Frank Sinatra, and his father, jazz guitar legend Bucky Pizzarelli. An unabashed champion of the classic American Songbook, Pizzarelli is just as likely to dive into a contemporary tune, as he does on Double Exposure, his latest CD, where he spotlights composers of his own generation. No matter what the repertoire, the outcome is invariably music of the highest degree, delivered with enough virtuosity, wit and panache to qualify him as one of the most entertaining jazzmen on the scene.
