DESCRIPTION:
ALBUM: Washington Square ..... LABEL: Epic LN24078 ..... YEAR: 1963
The jazz standard Midnight in Moscow (aka Moscow Nights) has never sounded better. I really like the banjos in this one as their sound reminds me of the Russian balalaika.. round with four strings vs triangular with three, but both folk instruments of their respective countries. For comparison here is a lovely melodic version played on the Russian balalaikas:
