High Wall- Real Life Film Noir

The follow-up to pianist Larry Vuckovich's critically acclaimed Street Scene CD TCH 684. The High Wall theme is a rare, hauntingly beautiful gem that Larry discovered from the 1947 film noir of the same name. There are four original Vuckovich pieces, including View from Telegraph Hill, a lovely ballad. Vuckovich creates a hot mambo arrangement of the traditional Russian Gypsy piece Dark Eyes. Reuniting with Vuckovich on High Wall are bassist Larry Grenadier, percussionists Hector Lugo and Vince Delgado, who performed on Street Scene. Other internationally known musicians joining them are drummers Eddie Marshall and Chuck McPherson, with bassist Paul Keller.
