Ed Bickert -'Tis Autumn' (1977)

Most of Ed's 'I Like to Recognize the Tune' LP is a straight up easy-listening, "with strings"-style record made for the Canadian Talent Library (which I believe received government funding to produce gentle musical cheese for the middle-aged Canucks in the 1960s and 1970s). This track is among the few (maybe the only one, actually) that wouldn't sound so out of place on one of Ed's straight up jazz albums. The band includes Don Thompson and Terry Clarke.

Don on Piano maybe? My old teacher Dave Mcmurdo gave me this LP so that I can listen to this. Thanks for posting!

Both Don and Gary Williamson are credited as playing piano on the album, but no specifics about who is playing what. I don't know Don's piano sound well enough to identify. Funny that a teacher would send a student to this album generally speaking--depending the on the student's age and experience level. This album could very will kill a budding jazz guitarist's interest in jazz completely, if not introduced with the proper context.

@@jimdixon3470 He gave me all the LP's of Ed. I even got introduced to Ed once at the Montreal Bistro cause I did a full transcription of everytime we say goobye. I think it was around 2001 or 2002
