Contrasts is a 1955 studio album by Erroll Garner.[3] Giving it a four-star rating, Scott Yanow of AllMusic wrote: "Erroll Garner never recorded an uninspired solo, and this CD is as good a place as any to explore his joyful music.".[1] The album was issued on compact disc in 1988 under the title The Original Misty with a different track ordering.
