Trio

A lost set of modernist piano jazz from the British scene of the late 60s - very much in the mode of the best American work of the time by pianists like Steve Kuhn or Don Friedman. Taylor's got an incredible touch on the keys -- a post-Bill Evans mode that uses space as much a sound, and which paints in broad colours and tones that seem to glisten in their own unique place in the musical spectrum. The sound is free, but never too "out" -- and the trio performs a number of strong originals like "Just A Blues", "Two Autumns", "Guru", and "Abena" -- plus completely transformed versions of "Stella By Starlight" and "All The Things You Are".
