Listener Reviews & Comments
This is a beautifully recorded session, highlighting the unique talents of the three players as they perform songs from an earlier era. Keith Ingham's piano work is nothing short of amazing. He plays with warmth and conviction in a style not unlike a Joe Sullivan or Earl Hines. His touch can be very delicate or he can rip into a barnburner with energy abound. This recording captures it all. Hal Smith is an ideal drummer in this trio context. The subtlety of his brush work and the flare of his sticks creates the perfect dynamic for the others to play off. It would be hard to find a better drummer for this situation. Bobby Gordon is the real treasure here. His playing is breathy and sometimes reminds me of Pee Wee Russell although his approach is all his own. His clarinet tone is woody and rich like a human voice. The notes seem to sometimes slowly drip from his instrument leading you to believe that he's just taking his time to unravel his story. There's not another player who can do it in such a relaxed and laid back way. The music that these guys make is something you'll never grow tired of hearing. Every time I play it, I'm amazed at just how good it sounds. This trio can also be heard on the Sackville recording "Music from the Mauve Decades". It's another excellent collection of tunes that will provide you with years of listening pleasure. Comment | Permalink | (Report this)
