Review by Daniel Ribeiro

The album Piano Playhouse, featuring Carl Perkins, Paul Smith, Jimmy Rowles, Gerald Wiggins, and Lou Levy, is a delightful collection of jazz piano pieces. The musicians showcase their impressive skills and unique styles in this album, which is a must-listen for any jazz lover.

The album opens with Carl Perkins' rendition of "Blues for Big Scotia," a soulful and bluesy track that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Paul Smith's "A Foggy Day" is a playful and upbeat tune that showcases his technical prowess on the piano. Jimmy Rowles' "The Peacocks" is a hauntingly beautiful track that highlights his unique style and sensitivity as a pianist.

Gerald Wiggins' "Don't Blame Me" is a romantic and dreamy piece that features his smooth and polished playing. Lou Levy's "S'Wonderful" is a lively and energetic track that showcases his virtuosity on the piano.
