...Sings the Love Songs of Mike Stoller

Brendan McCreary Sings the Love Songs of Mike Stoller—a new collection of fresh interpretations of rare gems as well as never-before-recorded songs by Stoller, most of them co-written with his late writing partner, Jerry Leiber. The album also features collaborations with celebrated lyricists Alan and Marilyn Bergman and songwriters Ralph Palladino and John Sembello. Vocalist Brendan McCreary (brother of Bear) interprets this trove of songs beautifully. The sparkling accompaniment is led by renowned jazz pianist and arranger John Beasley, who co-produced the album with McCreary. Recorded in Los Angeles at Tritone Recording, the album includes players Reggie Hamilton (bass), Peter Erskine (drums), James Harrah (acoustic, electric guitars), Dean Parks (pedal steel guitar), and Roni Eytan (harmonica), with Reade Pryor and Pete Griffin (drums and bass on “That Old Tune Called Romance”).
