Andre Previn began his professional career writing and arranging music for Hollywood films in 1946 and over the course of seven decades has pursued many musical goals. Whilst in Hollywood he discovered bop and would tour and record as a jazz trio during the 1950s. He then turned his back on jazz and became a classical conductor, leading the London Symphony Orchestra and Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. This album, originally released in 1959, which includes the hit single Like Young, became the first of his albums to make the top twenty in the US and showcases his undoubted talent for jazz.
