For more than 30 years, pianist Henri Chaix, bassist Alain Du Bois (who was originally a rhythm guitarist) and drummer Romano Cavicchiolo worked together as a trio. Du Bois would pass away just four months and ten days after the live session that makes up this CD, but he plays as well as usual throughout the swing-oriented mainstream music. Chaix is mostly the lead voice, and he swings a la Teddy Wilson on such numbers as “Just Friends,” “I Would Do Anything for You,” “I’ve Got My Fingers Crossed” and “Lulu’s Back in Town.” A delightful set full of joyful swing. – Scott Yanow
