Taken from the album, well worth checking out imho. No fireworks but a great take on modern piano trio jazz. Superb recording too.
Thanks for the hint,
not speaking in absolute terms but just to my taste it doesn't happen that often
these days something really worthwhile listening to is released.
To me '10' is an exception and is released as a 2 CD issue
as well as a 1 LP 180gr limited edition.
SQ on both is outstanding, the creative output was big enough to offer good material to fill 2 CDs.
So I don't see any 'B' -side material on those CDs, they are absolutely fine.
To me, particularly those with a nice MC system, the LP offers exactly the plus over CD you'd expect from a well made recording and excellently executed pressing.
Dead flat, centric, silent good vinyl and great natural dynamics...worthwhile imo.
The LP only has half the amount of songs, so it's kind of reduced to the maxx,
but from the homogenic feel & length of the listening experience it totally maked sense to me this way.
Both CD and LP are absolutely fine, if MC I'd tend to LP, otherwise CD.
I have both, you might call it excessive but I'll quit the next 10 'hip' new Jazz offerings instead.
The Tony Allen-The source is nice btw, got the CD since a while.
Not overwhelming, but solidly good...all imo of course.
Cheers & thx again for pointing me to it.
I have a feeling I'll be digging deeper into Helge Lien's former outputs sooner or later..
