Someone to rave about. I like his tone and style. Favourite tune: "Giuseppe" (from In Between, 2010) Using banjo for rhythm is couragous and - done in this way - ravishing: sort of folksy ambient jazz. There´s a lot to discover in Truffaz´ discography.

Thanks for notification, Cliff! First thought it might be a new edition of "Live in Tokyo" which is the best live recording of the late great Chet Baker up to date. Didn´t know that he played further dates in Japan than this legendary concert at Hitomi-Kine-Kodo, Tokyo, June 14, 1987. But of course Sendai is not Tokyo. So if those newly published Sendai dates are of similar quality both discs might be a real treasure.

My dearest Knuffke on Steeplechase is his duo recording "Satie" from 2016 with pianist Jesse Stacken with music by Erik Satie.
