CHRIS ANDERSON (p)
クリス・アンダーソン、表舞台に登場することのなかった幻のジャズ・ピアニスト。
優れたテクニックと非凡な感性によるインプロビゼーションは、独特なもので
深い感銘を得ることができる。
重度な身障者で、盲目という過酷なハンディを背負い、ジャズピアノを弾く以外
することがなかった、独学で自ら会得した演奏テクニックは、正式なレッスンを受けた
洗練されたものとは違うすごさが感じられる。
１９４０年末頃から１９６０頃まで、シカゴで演奏活動を行っていた、当地を訪れた
ジャズミュージシャンは、彼の演奏を聴きに出かけたという。
Charlie Parkerとの吹き込みもそのような状況で実現したのだろう。
ただし、このSAVOY盤のChis Andersonのピアノは、注目すべきところはない。
JOHNNY GRIFFIN, HERBIE HANCOCK, BARRY HARRISなど多くのミュージシャン
が彼の演奏に感銘を受けている。
ピアノの名手BARRY HARRISは、彼の演奏の後では私はピアノを弾くのが嫌になった
と語っている。
