Double Play! is a 1957 jazz album featuring pianists Russ Freeman and André Previn.[1]
It was recorded and released in 1957 on the Contemporary label, and re-released in 1993 in the Original Jazz Classics series.
Together with drummer Shelly Manne, the album, as its title suggests, includes eight baseball-themed original compositions by Freeman and Previn along with the standard "Take Me Out to the Ball Game".[1] (The rather risque-by-1950s-standards album cover features a model wearing a Hollywood Stars cap.) The album was advertised at the time as the first time that two pianists recorded "modern jazz" together.[1]
The Penguin Guide to Jazz suggested that the album was the best of Previn's early releases, being "the most uncomplicatedly jazz-driven".[2]
