Dub Modal Posted January 10, 2022 Report Posted January 10, 2022 Trying again with this one. Jazz Times rated it highly among 2021 jazz albums (recorded in 2019). First listen was a miss for me. But second listen was on phones while walking the dog in the dark early morning hours and it worked much better. Especially the second half with the 12 piece band. Quote

I struggled with it a little too. I need to give it another go. Great cover. Quote

I wish half the solo piano trio records had this quality to them. I think it gets lost in the shuffle between the early piano trio records and then the more famous RTF stuff. I rarely remember that they exist. 18 minutes ago, mjazzg said: Too ‘pretty’? Or more jazz heat? Quote

JSngry Posted January 10, 2022 Author Report Posted January 10, 2022 The new material is definitely value added, more things from the Choreographers Workshop period, lots of percussion-based stuff, which always turns out well with this group. They started getting into that in the later Chicago days and continued to develop it after the move to NYC. Quote
