Volume 2 of Russell Sherman’s cycle barks but never quite bites. Largely relying on bluster and bravado, his often provocative pianism lacks poetic restraint and sensitivity where it is most needed. That is not to say it is all bad; just mostly different. Sherman’s own entertaining booklet-notes signpost the more obvious idiosyncrasies.'
