Pianist Dave McKenna fills My Friend the Piano with constant surprises: rhythm, tempo, and key changes that somehow seem logical after the fact. There is a slight emphasis on ballads, but one's attention rarely wanders from the music. Although tasteful, is never entirely predictable. Scott Yanow, Cadence, All Music Guide
