Garner's impact as a pianist since he emerged on the scene in the mid-forties is legendary. He has been recognized internationally and has received numerous awards for his originality and unique style. Now, almost 2 decades after his death in 1977, his influence continues to show in the playing of many pianists on the current scene. Gemini portrays the duality of Garner in several ways. Born a twin, he was ambidextrous, and in this collection Garner plays both the piano and harpsichord. That's My Kick includes five original compositions by Garner. His work as a composer has burgeoned since his landmark opus Misty, which he wrote and recorded in 1954. The release of these first two albums (one CD) is the first in a series of six CDs that will be treasured by long-time Garner fans, as well as new listeners.

Rezensionen

T. Hintze in Stereo 8/03: "Die CD mit 19 Titeln bietet einen umfassenden Querschnitt wunderbarer Musik. Der "Kick" jedoch ist nicht nur sein unglaublich swingender Stil am Klavier, auch die Rhythmusgruppe, durch einen Congaspieler erweitert und damit erst zum Quartett mutiert, geht auf seine Spielweise ein, die man sonst von keinem anderen Pianisten in dieser Form hören kann."
