Fantastic piano trio. Plus it's a k2.

[Justin V]

Sadik Hakim - Lazy Bird

[Rabshakeh]

Jazz in the Space Age by George Russell (Decca, 1960). 

One of my favourite records with the late Charli Persip on. 

[Rabshakeh]

Meditations by Prima Materia featuring Rashied Ali (KFW, 1995). I thought the idea was a bit of a weird novelty at the time, but their version has grown on me. There was a lot of talent in the band and I think its music has dated well.

This is one of my all time favourites, and among the albums that were responsible for hooking me into jazz back in the day.  I remember being surprised at just how much music he was able to generate with just two hands: it is a nice crisp piano trio, but it hits as hard as a brassy big band.

Chris Washburne & The S.Y.O.T.O.S. Band - Fields Of Moons (Jazzheads). A more mellow CD from the usual barn-burning S.Y.O.T.O.S. (See You On The Other Side) band. Really enjoy the soft Latin rhythms. Many of these tunes give you the feeling that you should be dancing. I'm a little disappointed that Washburne hasn't been able to record with this band in a while. His last S.Y.O.T.O.S. CD, "Low Ridin'", was recorded and released in 2015, so they're overdue.

I bought this from Princeton Record Exchange when I most recently saw Roy Haynes, 2 months shy of 70 years after the album's session with Haynes.  Incredible.
