Bob Reynolds; Eddie Told Me So

I'm always on board for a soulful tenor sax concentrating on our honorable Great American Songbook. Bob Reynolds is indeed such a player and he opens this session with “Harrisburg”, most likely a hometown reference. From then on, it's mostly a matter of Songbook treasures with the exception of the title tune, “Eddie Told Me So”, Reynolds' other original on the session. You'll find no argument from me over such evergreens as “When Your Lover Has Gone”, “Change Partners”, “Just Friends”, “Charade”, and “You Don't Know What Love Is”. Reynolds' associates, Andrew Renfroe on guitar, Mike Gurrola on bass, and Charles Ruggiero on drums, provide solid support throughout, and Reynolds is right on target with strength and great feeling for these examples of songs we've known and loved all these years!
