He composed or arranged music for more than 50 films, and was music al director and conductor for many top symphony orchestra as well as composing classical art music. This collection focuses on his early career as a jazz pianist. His family, who were Jewish, left Berlin for Paris and then the USA in 1938, and when he graduated from high school in Los Angeles in 1946, started working at MGM studios. However, by then he was already playing jazz piano in Hollywood clubs and had made his first records. This 66-track 3-CD collection comprises most of his recordings from these early years as a solo pianist, with small groups and with strings, released on the Sunset, V-Disc, Monarch, RCA-Victor and Tops labels. It includes the titles from his \"Andre Previn Plays George Gershwin\" and \"Andre Previn Plays Fats Waller\" albums. He was especially noted for his recordings with his trios, and this set features trio and quartet recordings with Irving Ashby, Red Callender, Lee Young, Al Viola, Charles Parnell, Jackie Mills, Bob Bain, Ralph Collier, Lloyd Pratt, Art Shapiro, Irv Cottler, Al Hendrickson Buddy Clark and Shelly Manne. Among his remarkable musical accomplishments, he was a brilliant pianist, and even at this early stage of his career, his playing is fast, fluent and imaginative, and this collection offers a fine showcase for those talents.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalifornia Clipper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood Enough To Keep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue Skies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulholland Drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake The \"A\" Train\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Got It Bad\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubtle Slough [Just Squeeze Me]\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm Valley\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMain Stem\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomething To Live For\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Cover The Waterfront\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow High The Moon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody And Soul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariations On A Theme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndiana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAirmail Special\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll The Things You Are\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLady Be Good\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBut Not For Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMad About The Boy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis Can't Be Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShould I ?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Didn't Know What Time It Was\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMy Shining Hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHallelujah\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust One Of Those Things\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndiana\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBewitched, Bothered And Bewildered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'm Old Fashioned\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Gypsy In My Soul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnything Goes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Took Advantage Of Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou're The Top\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkylark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho Cares\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGet Happy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree Little Words\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWho's Sorry Now\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThinking Of You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLullaby Of Broadway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Only Have Eyes For You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis Heart Of Mine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeptember In The Rain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Know Why And So Do You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere Will Never Be Another You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI'll String Along With You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJeepers Creepers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Is Here To Stay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNice Work If You Can Get It\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI've Got A Crush On You\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere's A Boat Dat's Leavin' Soon For New York\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaybe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow Long Has This Been Going On ?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove Walked In\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrike Up The Band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThey All Laughed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAin't Misbehavin'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStealin' Apples\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI've Got A Feeling I'm Falling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSqueeze Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoneysuckle Rose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOh !
