My Romance (Houston Person album)

My Romance is an album by the saxophonist Houston Person, recorded in 1998 and released on the HighNote label.

[1][2][3] In his review on AllMusic, Dave Nathan states: "Person uses his knowledge and experience to revisit nine very familiar standards with his big, full-bodied, soulful tenor saxophone.

Given the very intimate nature of the session, this recording could easily have been of a live performance from a small, smoky lounge.

All that's missing are the tinkling glasses in the background and the light, knowledgeable applause of jazz fans who've dropped by to enjoy an evening of good music played by top jazz musicians.

Those who prefer a harsh, more cutting element to their music may find this album somewhat too slick for their tastes.
