Everything We Love is a live album (LP) by Norwegian guitarist Thorgeir Stubø and American guitarist Doug Raney[1] [2] released 1984 in Oslo, Norway by Hot Club Records – HCR 19).

Background

This is the third album by Thorgeir Stubø released in 1984 and presents an interaction with American guitarist Doug Raney, son of bop guitar pioneer, Jimmy Raney. Raney was at this time living in Denmark, and on this album Stubø made Doug Raney bring along top bassist Jesper Lungaard and drummer Ole Jacob Hansen. It was an elegant and perhaps more easily swinging quartet than the previous quintet, Jazz Alive. This time the repertoire also was a bit more conservative with a mix of older standards and bop tunes like "Everything I Love" (Porter), "Half Nelson" (Miles Davis), "Love Letters" (Young), "Get out of town" (Porter) Just Friends (Klenner/Lewis), "We'll be together again" (Fisher/Lane) and "So do it" (Montgomery). The two guitarists clearly show that they have some of the same influences, and they are relatively similar in style. Anyway, it's inequities and Stubø is rougher and a bit more angular in the performance than Raney's slightly smoother style.[3]

Reception

The review by Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars.[2]
