GORDON JOHNSON - TRIOS
It occurred to me a while ago that I would like to record in one of my favorite settings, the piano trio. Yet not having a working "band" of my own I toyed with the concept of holding a series of sessions in the same studio with many different pianists and drummers. Some of these musicians I have known for a long time, others a short time. Some I have spent years playing and riding the bus with, others only a couple of gigs. Some live nearby, others were just passing through town that day. All are brilliant. I am thrilled to have them all here with me now on this disc for you to enjoy. Thanks everybody!
