RON KAPLAN AND WEBER IAGO
Saloon: The Ron Kaplan/Weber Iago Album   (Kapland)

by John Gilbert

Shades of Danny Knight and Earl Coleman are omnipresent in this salute to the American song book.

With piano accompaniment by Weber Iago, Kaplan's dusky vocals are a pleasant excursion into the land of standards.

This album is a most welcome change from the usual vocal fare one hears these days.

"Nice Work If You Can Get It" showcases Ron Kaplan at his best. This tune exemplifies the prowess of Kaplan in an easy listening mode.
