Here’s some great ear candy for fans of Erroll Garner, or anyone else who enjoys pianistic virtuosity. Recorded in 1954, the highlight of the recording, which is housed in its original Mercury-EmArcy cover art, is Garner’s first recording of his biggest hit, “Misty,” free from pops, scratches, and other ravages of time. And since Johnny Mathis made the romantic tune popular, Garner played it nightly for the rest of his performing life-about 1,000 times a year, he estimated.
