at Michael’s Pub, something positively amazing is happening… I’ve been
in two nights in a row and I still can’t believe the fireworks… He singes
and plays a wide variety of songs ranging from old evergreens like “Sweet
Lorraine” to Alec Wilder’s “Mimosa and Me” with impeccable taste and
freshness….

What
gives Mr. Hazell his basic distinction is the adventurousness, imagination,
and taste shown in his choice of repertory, supported by the skill with
which he realizes the possibilities of the material he has chosen.”

Irving Kolidin, The Saturday Review
His
trio is a bright, joyous, swinging group. Eddie Hazell is a happy
reminder of what jazz used to be and can still be entertainment....
