Thanks for drawing this to our attention. I will listen to the track shortly.
Actually Eric has recorded in a trio context before. I just listened to this one yesterday. It is excellent.
I don't know whether or not High Note has dropped him. Perhaps. I'm a big fan but I think Eric went to the well a little too often with the quartet format on High Note. Generally the same personnel. Probably should have changed it up a bit. But that can also be a producer's decision, I guess.
