Just ordered it, because, you know, I like the old guys, even the living ones.

Very grateful to see the three great old living guys with the young pianist last year. Maybe some of it is on the disc if it is from Birdland. I figured this disc was coming out. Nice to see Lake, Workman and Cyrille get a few small headline gigs even if for two of them, it took 30 years to not be looked at as some sort of avant-garde pariahs by many. So progress is that Trio 3 is booked @ Birdland and John Zorn just had a week @ The Vanguard.

Pretty soon the Vanguard might wake up and book William Parker and Hamid Drake - maybe with Paul Dunmall on tenor?!?! And bagpipes?!?!

Seriously it would be a good idea - too bad it would have been a good idea 15 or 20 years ago....

Fwiw - Zorn's Masada on Saturday night was as hot a ticket as one could imagine. Also would have been a good idea in 1994.

The album with Jason Moran was one of my favourite albums from 2013... love that one, but it weirdly makes me hesitant to check this one out for some reason. I guess it's their thing that they're going to be playing with different piano players from album to album, but the album with Moran just seemed like such a perfect band that i don't want to break the illusion.
