Yes, "Piano Portraits" and "I  Love a Piano" . . . good stuff indeed.

Indeed is right. I have both the Stereo and Mono Lps of the Piano Portraits and it's has the same feel that the best of the Contemporary records have. I Love a Piano is also great[and one of the less appealing covers]. All my records are boxed for the next month or so, so I had no way to check if this was indeed the Roulette stuff.

If the eBay price stays low it would be a nice way to get these for someone. :tup
