The purity of improvisation brought out by bassless music
Scott Hamilton, Jake Hannah, and Dave McKenna create a free-flowing swing with this unconventional trio, lacking a bassist.
The absence of bass is more than compensated for by the powerful stride of the piano, the elegant phrasing of the saxophone, and the tight drumming that creates a spark. The high level of skill and trust between the players makes this a rare recording that highlights the inherent dynamism and thrill of jazz.
